pct day 48 - 06/22/13

another awesome day. the others left camp around 04:00 and i was feeling so great that i ran a little in the morning. i ended up catching up with them by 07:00 and then made my way up and over carson pass.

when i got down to highway 88 there was a visitor's station with forestry volunteers. they had a supply of cookies, oranges, plums and coffee. so welcoming and so generous. two women showed up just passing by and because they were knowledgable about thru-hiking, they gave me a whole bunch of food, which was great cuz i was completely out. thanx eve and laurie (i hope i got that right!) . . .



the other four showed up shortly after. here is a pic . . . (sorry for the finger across the lens)


i then hiked with the other four the rest of the afternoon. i let them try out my super light backpack and had a great workout carrying their 45lb packs. we got to highway 50 and got an easy hitch from a guy with no sense of smell, lol!

i get to see some awesome dudes i hiked with on the appalachian trail! more to come . . .

27 miles from tamarac lake trail to highway 50. 1093 miles total.
