…but it was all made better by wonderful trail angels Jodie and Melody, who were there with candy, cookies, chips, sodas, fruit, and veggies. They also had a foot repair station, a hand washing station, and a great dog to love on. Thank you so much!
Looks like you are really moving on. Be careful out there especially in the heat of the day. Many years ago I did the desert survival school with the US Army and, while amazing, was one of the more grueling assignment’s I ever undertook. Be Careful and Be Safe Out There ! Hardcharger
Yeah, there are sections that are quite exposed, so many of us take long breaks in the afternoon. Thankfully the weather has been moderate so far.
