After about 3 hours of sleep I woke at 7:30 as hikers began stomping by. The plot of ground I’d picked to cowboy camp on was practically on the trail, but I’d been so tired at the time I hadn’t cared.
I was still exhausted from the previous days push, but I wouldn’t gain anything from attempting to sleep at this spot, so Airborne and I packed up and headed up to the Knifes Edge.
The narrow trail offered 360 degree vistas, but the thick smoke hid the awesome peaks I’d seen on my way north.
There were heaps of mountain goats out this morning, a herd grazing on either side of the ridge we traversed.
By 6 I arrived at Lava Springs, my home for the night. It was a neat spot. I opted to cowboy camp out of laziness, and after a quick dinner I was out.
Cheers!
