Carrie arrived at Vermillion Valley Ranch on Sunday, June 17. She didn't have cell phone or internet service so asked me to update her blog. She may regret that request!!
Who am I? Mom. Resupply box mailer. Praying fanatic. Scared and worried mama. Excited and proud mother. Cheerleader. Hourly blog checker. Health food, dense calorie, additional calorie, can't be losing weight this early in the hike shopper. My thoughts are consumed with Carrie - her happiness, health, safety and warmth. My pride is tempered with worry. My excitement calmed by waiting for the next call. While I know she has researched and prepared for this trip for 3 years, I still wait and worry. But I am SO excited for her!
Carrie is a happy camper!! She is in the mountains and she is fishing!! During this last leg of the hike, she caught 15 brook trout in 30 minutes at Rae Lakes. She received more tackle from her Aunt Lynn in her re-supply box at Vermillion Valley Ranch. (To Lynn and Carrie, fishing gear is like candy!!) Plus now being in the mountains, she is hiking slower and taking in all the amazing scenery. This latest resupply point required a ferry ride across a lake. She has so many stories to tell!

Carrie sends her thanks for the extra letters and gifts. They mean a lot to her. She knows that people are thinking about her!
