I spent almost the whole day today hiking on burnt forests. Not fun, specially when the sun and high temperatures are back.
I had to do something regarding my food. My day food is not the best, but it’s ok (mainly bars and nuts). On the other hand, I’m not enjoying my cold dinners at all. I took a tiny detour today to stop by a resort that had a small shop to see how I could improve my food situation.
Tortillas and nutella, that was the solution that I could come up with given the limited options that I had. I’ve just had dinner now: the same cold soaked cucumbers, tomato, cabbage and seeds salad but this time wrapped in a tortilla with some almonds. I must say that it tasted much better than the salad alone. And for desert I had tortilla with nutella, which has absolutely no problem being served cold.
Tomorrow is Saturday (a good day for trail magic) and I heard that it’s common to have trail magic in this area. I’m hopping I can find an option to skip one more day of eating cold soaked food (in
other words: that I find trail magic). And the day after tomorrow… buffet lunch at Timberline Lodge 🤩!
