Wasn’t tired to stop, but needed water before reaching the ranger station. Don’t know why, just feel like I might get caught up talking with people.
John Muir Trail Day 15: Muir Trail Ranch to Evolution Creek
I’m currently sitting in the San Joaquin River soaking my butt, legs, & feet. I’m wearing the sports bra I’ve been hiking in the past 5 miles.
John Muir Trail Day 14: Marie Lakes to Muir Trail Ranch
This place is magical, I’m telling ya. Getting to MTR was awesome. My resupply was everything I needed it to be.
John Muir Trail Day 13: Bear Creek to Marie Lakes
This would be mile 1.11. Trying to slow down a bit, so I decided to stop at the creek. Low enough where I can walk across the creek with water to my ankles.
John Muir Trail Day 12: VVR to Bear Ridge Trail
Breakfast @ VVR was nice. Not amazing, but nice to have a warm coked meal that doesn’t include boiling water. Needed ketchup for my potatoes though.
John Muir Trail Day 11: Mono Creek to VVR
Early morning journaling today. Tried to sleep in, but my body is restless. Feet are tired, not sure, body’s a little sore, but honestly no real complaints.
JMT Day 10: Lake Virginia to Mono Creek
I’m not even sure how I did 11.47 miles today, but you know what- it sure in hell feels like it. Started the day late, at 10 AM.
JMT Day 9: Deer Creek to Lake Virginia
Just finished cooking dinner: garlic creamy shells w/broccoli. I know, I was supposed to have burritos tonight, but I think I’ll make it to VVR tomorrow.
JMT Day 8: Red’s Meadow to Deer Creek
Back on the JMT. Solo this time and I’m not sure how I feel about it so far. Loving my new 1P tent. Ice cream + beer at Reds before hitting the trail at 3 PM.
A Little Lonely But Never Alone: Solo Backpacking
It’s Memorial Day weekend. Winter is gone, and for the past 4 months, I have successfully gone on one solo trip every month this year.
