April 18, 2021 589.6 We got a little bit of a late start this morning, but given the last few days and the fact that we were setting out from a hotel, that’s to be expected. We caught an Uber to the trailhead and were hiking by 9:00am. For real this time. No more slack-packing.Continue reading “Day 47: Friends of Queen”

Day 46: An Unexpected Zero Day
April 17, 2021 Zero Day We woke up to snow! It’s crazy how the weather changes in this state, and especially at high elevation. The temperature had been slowly dropping yesterday, to the point that our walk back to the Motel DuBeau from the brewery was extremely cold. We were planning on doing our lastContinue reading “Day 46: An Unexpected Zero Day”

Day 42: Sometimes you Just Gotta Laugh
April 13, 2021 564.1 Thin Mints for breakfast! Good job, past Sarah. Way to think ahead. I kind of love that my metabolism has reached the point where I can stomach solid food in the morning. Even if it is cookies and other such garbage. Calories are calories! We packed up by 6:30am and hikedContinue reading “Day 42: Sometimes you Just Gotta Laugh”
