More than 5,100 miles walked this year throughout the CyTC

This morning was everyone’s nightmare at the store’s site. It’s a joke. But I got up at the usual early time and prepared my coffee in silence. I always think it is fun when I introduce myself late and then I am the first person. I am a ghost. I didn’t want to spend too much sleeping my alarm and Dillydally, so I packed quickly and walked around 5:15 am I still needed my lighthouse that felt quite well.

It was a really incredible beginning for the day. The temperature was pleasant and cold. Almost as soon as I left that camp, I continued along a narrow crest where there would have been any place to camp. I am so happy not to keep walking last night. I walked a couple of miles and finally found a super terrible camp and two tents were crowded there. Another mile more or less later I walked with someone who Cowgrowed camped 1 foot from the path. There was only space for a body there. That would have been if I went ahead last night! Or even more likely that I would have had to go further because all those people were already there.

I obtained some excellent views of dawn when I left the place of the camp and started a gradual climb. After the first miles of the day, a rise that continued for approximately five miles would begin. And that would be the only climb all day. Then I would simply navigate the upper part for a while before falling to the road where I could get hooked to the city. But I received service and sent a message out of Jay and Noelle. Noelle will be the hostess tonight in Dunsmuu and said he could come and pick me up when.

Glorious Mount Shasta!

Time spent ridiculously fast during the morning. And it seemed that I had only been walking for a couple of hours when I arrived at a crossroads that I recognized. But I had completely forgotten that I was here. There is an alternative route just before going down to the road. Basically, just drop and walk for a more open part of the path with a view to Shasta. Instead of curving more in the forest and far from the views. I just remembered that I really loved that, so I decided to do it again. And a little mileage was shaved, which was also great.

The rest of the day was basically everything downhill. I decided to do some voice to send text messages to get caught in my writing. I will be in the city so pleasant and early today, so I really hope to spend a lot of time writing and editing. I am on the cusp of being caught. But I have to do a little for many days to get caught. Usually, if I am up to date with my writing, I just have to spend about half an hour every day writing and editing. But after you move away from you, you really compile. I am excited to get caught in order to get caught by the rest of the year. As I was during the first five months of the year.

1500 miles on the PCT.

I ended up going to the road around 11:15 am. I sent a text message to Noelle to let him know that he was there and I would love a trip at any time. But honestly, I didn’t mind sitting for a few minutes and being able to make more edition. He had service, so time was not lost in any way. While sitting there, a car finally stopped and the woman inside shouted me. I asked if it was Noelle and she said yes and to enter. Then, once I was in the car, he asked me where he was going. What I thought was quite confusing because Noelle will be host at home.

I reiterated this and I said something like «Are you not Noelle?» To which she replied that no, that she was a transport driver. That was so strange and strangely intentional. I told him that I was waiting for a trip he had scheduled and needed to return to where he was. She had taken me back along the path she had already walked on the PCT. But she simply left me outside and didn’t even take me back. So I had to walk where I had been sitting before.

Arriving at the beginning of the path. The hitch in the city can be difficult because you are basically hooking from this in ramp.

Not long after that, Noelle came and picked me up. She was ridiculously pleasant and the encounter was much more pleasant than that other lady. In fact, I told her and thought she knew who the lady was. Apparently there is some meat with transport conductors in the area. Some are super territorial and will literally come and take you even though you say you have organized a trip with another person. Which I think is as low as you can go. Then I suppose that some of the transport drivers will even try to «force» the hikers to stay at home instead of in a hotel. All that is quite strange to me. But I had never experienced something like that before.

Noelle was a total girlfriend, and we talked while taking me to the city. I really like the city of Dunsmir. He has everything you need and without luxuries. Mount Shasta is really great, but it’s expensive. And it is a longer trip to leave. Once we arrived in the city, Noelle left me in the hamburger barn so that I could have lunch. Then he told me that he would come back and get me when he’s over and that he could replenish and everything.

The hamburger barn was all he wanted and more.

The hamburger barn was exactly what my heart wanted. I received a cover, curly fries and a Dr Pepper. And I also obtained a large and cream sching. I sat there and wrote some writing and video work while ate. Then Noelle came and picked me up and took me home. He had the prettiest dog called Clementine whom he obtained the pet. And he had a perfect free room for hikers to stay. Everything that could really expect in the world is a room with a bed and electrical outputs. She also had super good Wi-Fi. I realized almost immediately once I began to edit a couple of things that was going to be very fast and efficient.

One of the most exhausting aspects of the edition and video blogs is that if the wifi is bad, everything has 10 times. Even something as simple as uploading photos to my blog can take five minutes by blog. Or it could be a super fast process and then 10 minutes could upload the photos to 10 blogs. I also need to support my phone to the cloud, so I was happy to have Wi-Fi and try to do it. When I forget to do that for a long time, it is incredibly out of control and becomes almost unmanageable. Which means that it only literally carries from 24 to 36 hours to load everything. And basically I never have so much free time.

This is how summer knows!

Once I settled and all my electronic ones loaded me, I gave myself an incredible shower. Then I put my clothes together and started a load. After that, I decided to walk the city to make my counts. There is a general dollar on the other side of the city, but it was too far. So I only went to the Lunsmuir market, which was a small grocery store. They had everything that could have needed and, in reality, a fairly decent variety of certain articles. However, I obtained an obscene number of drinks. Probably seven or eight. Recently, what brings me more joy in the city are drinks. So I wanted to make sure to have enough to drink at night, in the morning, and then I like to pack one or two the next day. It simply seems that it is never enough, it doesn’t matter how much you get. But the last times I stayed in the city, I bought too many and ended up packing a lot of drinks.

After grabbing everything, I stopped in a fuel equipment store and entered one or two places. Then I returned to Noelle’s house to relax and work in the edition. I did a lot of writing things for a while and obtained upload photos for all my blogs. Then I did some video things and obtained some new YouTube videos loaded. I felt as incredibly productive in the Wi-Fi was simply phenomenal.

During the rest of the day, I mostly came out and rested my body. I packed my refueling and organized everything. I wrote and edited a lot for hours. Then I enjoyed dinner with Noelle and her son living with her. I was very well informed about forest fires and different things like that. I had a great time sitting and having dinner with them. This was such an incredible half a half! In truth, everything worked absolutely perfectly.

After dinner, I got even more writing and video editing. At the end of the day, I was not completely trapped, but finally I go in the right direction. If I have service two or three times a week in the afternoon, it could be trapped quite fast. I just need a little more time. I was awake for a while working on all that and then configured some videos to load during the night and backed my phone. It seems that tomorrow morning I will have a little later, because I don’t want to force Noelle to get up early. It seems that I will go back to the road around 8 am which is perfect! I will have a lot of time to make tons of miles.
