I felt fully recovered today and the miles didn’t seem too bad. The trail was very beautiful, a big change from the desert of SoCal. There were lots of shady stretches in trees and stunning vistas when we got up high. There was snow on the ground in places, but easily walked or bypassed.

We got into camp at the civilised time of around 6.30pm (we left this morning at 7am) so there was time to eat and have a campfire.
