As always, they got on the trail early. They wanted to make good time so they could reach town at a reasonable hour. Sara and Brian, Dale’s niece and her husband, picked them up at a road crossing about 3:00 p.m. Lots of good things happened today . . . they got a new water filter . . . showers . . . two care packages. . . and real food!
The foot report was pretty good. Dale has taken good care of his feet this year. No blisters!!!! Ben reported that his blisters did not seem to be getting worse, but he did have another little bump come up on is toe. Hopefully the ointment they received in the care package will do the trick!
All of the activities in town made it a longer day than usual. It was well past hiker’s midnight when they got back to the hotel and climbed into bed.
14.1 miles today – 79.4miles complete
