Day 64: 900 miles
Today’s milestone – we have passed 900 miles. We did 24 miles today taking us to 921 miles. The weather has been perfect for hiking and the snow is melting fast in the summer heat.
Now that we are back in California, we are meeting more and more hikers who, like us, have skipped all or some of the Sierras and jumped up to one place or another. Some are going north, some are going south.
We have gradually gained elevation over the day, and are now camped near some snow drifts. We expect to have 2 or 3 miles of snow to cover tomorrow, then it should be plain sailing for a couple of days down to Castella and Dunsmuir where we plan to stay a night in a motel.
Hi!!b I think there is a song about “900 miles”????
Great reading your journals. The mother bear must have left you alone as you were taking photos of her babies and she felt very proud of them. LOL
Everyone here is well, Ros. Jeeuk soon to do exams, I think. He doesn’t talk about them.
NAIDOC march is tomorrow.
Take care, and thank you for including us in your travels. Jen
As a,ways, I especially love the flower and tree photos and it’s lovely to see them in sunlight.
Beautiful weather in those photos. Bet you always look forward to the motel stays!
