Well, another fine day in the ‘wet state’. We had a cool uphill hike in the morning but after about 8 am it started to warm up and by 10 o’clock we had both warmed up and encountered ground water and lakes – welcome to mosquito country.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We are still meeting plenty of southbound hikers and today caught up with some we had met before in Southern California including Autobahn, Jenny and Bat Girl. Hopefully we will see some of them when we hike through the Sierras as they will be heading south while we go north.<\/p>\n

In the heat of the afternoon and after an uphill stretch, we met ‘Has Feet’ again. He was reading in the back of his 4wd and waiting for his buddy to come by. This time he gave us mandarins, cheese sticks and soft drink which were greatly appreciated. That makes it 3 out of 3 days of trail ‘magic’ so far in Washington.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We finished 25.8 miles and camped on an old disused dirt road. Tomorrow we will get to Trout Lake for a cleanup and resupply. Also a feed at the Cafe.<\/p>\n
