Friday, Aug 28. Ended the day at 1998.4, for 21.6 miles today.
I pushed hard to get all the way to the Santiam Pass trailhead given the rain forecast, and made it about 5:20pm. I met a lady I saw on the trail (a triple crowner - AT, PCT, and CDT). Her husband was following her with as support, and they offered me a ride into Sisters OR where I got a motel. The motel owner offered me a ride back to the trail Monday morning, so I am all set!
Today was overcast which was great considering how exposed the trail was. I hiked most of the day through a burn area...hours. the fire was from 2003. The trail was fairly easy. Still, back to back 20+ mile days beat me up.
I've completed 146 miles so far. Still not very hungry. Legs and feet are holding up and I am beginning to feel stronger. Glad for the rest this weekend.
