All today and for most of tomorrow she's having to retrace trail that already covered but then the next day she'll reach new ground as she climbs and crosses Forester Pass. At 13,153 feet it's the highest pass on the Pacific Crest Trail. It's also the highest pass on the John Muir Trail which has Mount Whitney as its southern terminus and shares the same track as the PCT for some 160 miles.
Back at ground control, the big news is that I did a couple hours of bicycle maintenance and tomorrow I'm getting a couple new tires put on the truck. Exciting stuff .. ;-)
All the best! /David
