Day 103, part 1

Mile 1840.3 to mile 1848.8

PCT Miles: 8.5 (13.6km)

Total Miles: 1848.8 (2958.1km)

This past night I had one of the coldest night experiences here on the PCT. Not only because it went below freezing, but mainly because Iā€™m not bringing warmer clothes for this part of the trail. Well, it happens.

I had agreed with Free Mile to meet at highway 138 at noon. He would leave earlier to go back a few miles and have breakfast with Soybean, his wife, with a view to the Crater Lake. I started hiking a bit after 6 and soon reached the road, where I would hike for the next 8 miles.

To be honest it was not that bad. It took a while for the sun to warm me up but the views were beautiful and it was too early for the roads to be busy with cars. After eating all my remaining snack bars along the way, I arrived at the meeting point at 9:30am.

For breakfast, I just had the half that I saved from my dinner yesterday at the best hikertrash style, by the roadside. Now Iā€™m 100% without food, so I hope Free Mile (and specially our ride) really show up šŸ˜¬!
