12mi
Come to find out my tarp is not exactly waterproof. However, it did keep me plenty comfortable through the rainy night. I woke to drizzle and decided to go ahead and pack up my stuff. As soon as I took down my tarp, it started raining hard, getting my gear pretty wet. I relaxed there at The Captain's place waiting for it to stop raining, and when they offered breakfast, I couldn't refuse. Again, I jumped to do dishes before anyone could say differently. I then took the opportunity to take a shower and got my gear ready to go. I was really hoping my knee was healed, but the 1000ft ascent at the second mile told me differently. So much for trying some big miles today. I did pass Mtn Lake Resort where supposedly "Dirty Dancing" was filmed. I'm staying at War Spur Shelter tonight because of the rain. Of course I have it to myself as I've yet to see any other hikers. Talk about solitude.
