Kennedy Meadows
Gateway to the Sierras. Mile 702. I set a goal to reach this place by 6-15. I'm 4 days early, despite a few setbacks. I have new boots, snow pants, new backpack, a new stove and much food. Mind and body are in tune and ready for this!

I love that you're still wearing that chewed up hat!
ReplyDeleteAlso, you are wearing my favorite type of pants....cargo pants. In fact, I have a pair on right this minute as I type this.
You look every bit the part of the very very serious hiker that you are. In fact, if there was..or is...a magazine called "Serious Hiker", you should be on the cover.
Good luck and enjoy this next trek. Looking forward to the pictures.
Hey! remember when it was winter and we were sitting downstairs looking at maps and figuring out when you needed to finish this hike due to weather? And you said, " I HAVE to be at Kennedy Meadows by June 15th. That means an average of 20 miles a day with almost no zeros! Do you think I can actually do it? I mean, gun to your head..what do you think?" ? I said. "Of course you can do it!" You were 4 days early. Mind is good. Knees are good. ANkles are good. Let's GOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteWalk on, my dear Wolverine!
