AT 57 - 22nd May (697.9)




Swim #13

Swam with snails and trout. 






 Walked for 12 hours today. My legs are (You don’t say). Swim #13 with snails and trout. Still had 1 mile uphill after the swim so got sweaty again anyway but the swim was lovely. On section was on 45% slab of rock (Eastern Continental Divide)  so it was tough walking and feet hurt a lot. Met a lot of hikers who have returned from  Damascus Trail Days so it could get crowded. Tonight I’m in my tent and 4 in shelter so not too busy.
