Day 64 – VVR to Mile 883.6

Friday, June 26. Low 40s and cloudy going up to low 60s.

Up at 7:00. Nice VVR Breakfast.

Published 5 days worth of blogs and took care of some home chores. 

Resupplied. Not very good resupply, but it’s only 2 days or a hair less.

Running late, but wanted to have a real lunch at VVR. Got on trail at 1:30. Only 11 miles to go today.

Got to camp at 6:15. Brad, Back Flip, Kellie, Kellie’s Husband, Brad, Margarita, and me. We had a campfire which was nice as we have a cold wave for the next several days.

The Pups stopped by for a while on the way to their campsite: North Side, Gramps, Salty Bones.

Day 64 Around The campfire

Good time around the campfire until almost 9:00. We want to get within 5 miles of Red’s Meadow tomorrow so we can have a long Nero the day after in Mammoth. 

Cold snap rolling in. Could get down to 35 tonight with windchills in the 20’s. Highs in the upper 40s the next few days.
