I am still trying to figure out how to structure this blog, and as I am a bit pressed for time, I will combine the rest of Section A in this post.
These were long, hot, tough days. Reading about other people making this journey, really did not prepare me for doing it myself. But I made it, blisters and all. In this section, I averaged about 15.5 miles a day.
Things I have learned:
In Washington, we seek to leave the shade when hiking, in Southern California, we rejoice to find it.
Water does not mean shade.
Water is heavy, and not abundant.
I have SWEATY SWEATY feet. It is really terrible.
There is VERY LITTLE fishing to be done in Southern California. Shipping the fishing pole to the Sierra.
Everything down here has thorns, EVERYTHING.
The PCT rarely takes the most efficient route.
Gatorade make a Lime-Cucumber flavor and it is THE BEST.
Sorry there isn't more for you guys, I'll try to do better in the next section. Talk to you in a week!
