The sun woke me up again around 5:30 but I tried to fall back asleep for a while since the wind kept waking me most of the night. I’m tired and feeling discouraged about another hot day ahead of us. After doing our morning things we got to hiking through more burn over blowdowns.
Our first stop was a pond and we were both excited to take a little dip when we arrived. We set up the tent because the mosquitoes were a little too welcoming and both chugged some water before getting in to cool off. While we were chillin another hiker, Storytime (I think), arrived and started chatting with us. She gave us some homemade cookies her mom sent her! This break turned out to be a little longer than we expected but very much needed.
Onwards through a lot more snow than we had seen, a couple sketchy sections but nothing too bad. Having wet feet from snow isn’t fun. We got to the top of a ridge after a tough climb where there was a nice breeze and it was so beautiful so I had a little cry about the hard climb and the beauty.
