Backpacking, Long Distance Hiking. Thru Hike of the Continental Divide Trail 2014

Tourists
We visited Old Faithful, ate lunch at the Yellowstone Inn, checked out the mud pots and a couple of waterfalls. Lots of driving made for stiff muscles but it was a fun day. Nugio and Firepit were with us. Then it was dinner back at the RV with Sleeping Bare. It stopped raining and warmed up. Yesterday I was so cold it felt like I'd never be warm again. This time in the hike is when the mental aspect of a thru hike gets tough. I know it's seeped into my blogposts especially since I have to get off trail for a bit so close to the end. But the rain does stop, the sun shines, the shoes and socks dry out. I'm determined. I got this. So does Pounce. One step at a time.

Helicopter: If ever you were inclined to leave the trail, call me first. OK? We had a deal.
