Mile marker: 125.4 Miles today: 15.8
Almost lost my rock bag & cord for my bear hang!
As I woke up, I knew I had a big day in front of me: a nice uphill for leaving the gap & a lot of miles. It went way better than I expected. That morning, I made sure to tape my right foot.
The best view of the day must have been Wayah Bald!! I got lucky, once I arrived, the fog & light rain of the day disappeared letting me see the scenery.
I got to camp around 5 PM. As I arrived, I went to look for a good tree to hang my food bag…there really wasn’t much. When I found one that could work, after a few non-successful throws…my rock bag was stuck on a branch!
I just wanted to sit down & cry…I told myself ” guess I will just sleep with my food from now on”. Seing what happened, Giggles came and saved the day. He got my rock bag back!
The privy at the site, was unstable. For a few seconds, I tought I was going to flip over in the privy!!! That would of been bad 😮
It was a foggy & misty night. It was hard to see anything in the middle of the night…
