Day 47

It was a long, tough day, as I had to make up miles that I lost the previous day. I ended up doing 26.5 miles, with two big mountains, probably besting my previous longest hike prior to my ankle injury. It felt great to feel good again physically. I can now feel confident about hitting the Sierra Nevada, which I have been looking forward to since doing the John Muir Trail last year. I ended the day right after sunset, and managed to get water and set camp before darkness kicked in.
