Started the day with a lift from the hostel along with Jim (McGyver59) and Mild Sauce (aka Chelsea). Mild Sauce is doing what we did yesterday, so we set off in opposite directions.Although today was hot, the gentle winding paths through forests and valleys (albeit still at over 5000′) made progress easy and at one point Jim and I were headed for a 20+ mile day. Unfortunately Jim twanged a tendon so we sensibly cut it short at Bench Camp. Still, 16 miles is still a decent distance.And now, Epithany Toilet anyone?If these trail conditions persist I will be arriving at Cajon Pass a little sooner than anticipated.
