11.2 miles south of Sam’s Gap
I got rained on today and wound up skipping lunch. When I got here, it was pouring and I was very hungry so here I am at 11.2 miles for today.
The shelter is pretty full: C-Shot, Big Brother, Tree Work, Shadow, Me and one more are in there shelter and Rain Check and two others are tenting. I wish I were better at remembering names, and it just gets embarrassing to ask repeatedly.
The shuttle to Sam’s Gap was a total rip-off (it seemed high at the time, but now that I’ve asked others, I’ve found that it was ludicrously high). Dan at Bluff Mountain has shuttled me before and the price was reasonable, so I didn’t shop around. When we got to Sam’s Gap in 40 minutes though, I really wondered. I’m glad I’m done with Hot Springs. Everything there is expensive!
There were two graves on the trail today, and as I was coming down into Devil Fork Gap, I head what sounded like one very pissed off donkey. With the fog and the graves it was really surreal.
