I woke at 4am and was walking by 5. Glorious skies and ever changing vistas lightened my way. The path was clear and well marked. A joy more appreciated after yesterday!
I walked past the abandoned exotic animal compound. A place where Tigers and rare animals were housed for years- for use in Hollywood movies. I had expected something more classy, maybe high wrought iron fences, but it is for sale if you are in the market
I hurried my pace with anticipation of meeting with David, washing, and eating fresh salad and fruit!!

Last summer the Canadian border opened at Manning Park, BC. I walked the last 70 miles with a sense of joy and gratitude, the monument was crowded with people from all over the world, finally able to compete their dream.
The summer of '23 was incredible for another reason. Lonely for the simple pleasure and renewing life of long distance trail hiking I decided to begin the Continetal Divide Trail !
I hiked from the south I-15 crossing to Canada (about 900 miles), experiencing windstorms, a blizzard, twice daily thunderstorms and days without seeing even a human footprint.
I was hooked! Stay tuned as Wingman and I restart the blog chronicling the remaining 2100 miles of the CDT, from Mexico to Montana.
