Day 2

 Miles: 10.9

Total: 22.3




Woke up to a damp sleeping bag! But I stayed warm through the night. We were the last to leave camp, so we will have to work on packing up quicker. The temperature never heated up today which was lucky because of a steep 1,200 ft incline. More climbing tomorrow! By noon, we made it to Lake Morena, in time for lunch at the Malt shop. The owners kicked us out for sitting down inside before ordering, but the fries were good and I charged my phone up a bit. Our side trips in town totaled an extra 3 miles. We couldn’t swim in the lake because of the algae toxins. Instead, we took a nap while waiting for Nicholas to drop off my Altras. I have developed about 5 blister in my hiking boots so those are headed home. Thanks Nicholas! Good to see you and Maple. We pushed on for 3 more miles so a large campsite and beautiful sunset views. We are alone tonight so hopefully we will camp with more hikers tomorrow.
