Actually I'm 30.088% complete so I'm not rounding up.
Damn but it was cold this morning - my car said 36°. I have new found respect for those that backpack in the winter. Apparently I'm a wimp as I made my coffee (ok, I reheated yesterday's) and then drank it in the car with the heat on). I then put on my big boy pants and drove to the trailhead where I finished yesterday. I walked the trail to my campsite (2.6 miles) and biked back to get my car before I had breakfast. After I finished the next section (4.1 miles) I packed up and headed home. I wanted to do more but the next section is 4 miles with a really hilly bike ride afterwards, so it's going to wait till Friday. Tomorrow we have to go to Madison for a Thursday morning appointment so I'll be off the trail for the next 2 days.
I continue to be amazed by the beauty of this trail. I continue to have the trail to myself and of yet there are no mosquitos.
Enjoying your comments and pictures. Don't overdue it. You could make it a triathlon if you swim some laps at the lakes you past by. :) Dad
