Day 19


Looking back at Big Bear Lake

We had a later start than we preferred leaving Big Bear, and also with a heavy pack. Well, the thing is, no matter how much trail legs I have, a heavy pack is still a heavy pack, and conversely, a lighter pack is still a lighter pack. I prefer the latter. But I for one does not skimp on food. I like to bring at least an extra day of food, for that just in case situation.

We only went 12 miles today and we happen to camp near a campsite accessible by road. Someone had given me a Cracker Barrel mac n' cheese at the hostel and I cooked that for dinner since it is the heaviest of all my dinners. It was so good! It felt like a continuation of a proper town meal.
