Okay, big day: I want to get in position for a quick Castella visit tomorrow. That means doing 35+ miles, and a lot of elevation gain and loss. That means I get to see a sunrise though!

I see this literally every morning, thoughI see this literally every morning, though

The good news is that I was hiking with Crash, who pulls like 3.8 mph, even (especially) up hills. This meant that I reached my goal, even if it was tiring.

36+ miles; 8,366 feet up; 10,582 feet down. Oof.

Crash doing his thing.Crash doing his thing.

Crossed a river though. I should've gone swimming.Crossed a river though. I should've gone swimming.
