Leaving in the morning to start section five
Posted by Michelle on Tuesday, Mar 31, 2009
Dave has had a rest day here in Hanksville with me and tomorrow morning we will hitchhike back down to where the route crosses the highway and we’ll start the next section.
I’m hoping the rest has been enough to keep my knees going. I don’t want to miss another day of hiking, there is just too much beauty out there.
We may not be able to post again for another three weeks, but in the mean time I’ll be writing and taking pictures.

Hey guys!
Followed your tracks along the Arches boundary fence 2 days ago. We had a great (although somewhat exhausting) journey through Arches. This is definitely not a high-mileage route. But it is quite spectacular! Hope you guys got over the Henry’s with all digits intact– I’m sure it will still be cold when we finally get there. Tomorrow we float the Colorado to Spanish Bottom and resume hiking the Hayduke not far from the confluence. We will look for more evidence of your passage, but so far you’ve been dyed-in-the-wool LNTers. Hope all is well and Michelle’s knees are back in action. Can’t wait to read more updates.
Whiptail and Caron.
I tried posting a comment on your blog but couldn’t with my blackberry. Hope your Hayduke hike is going well. Will try to keep up on your site when we can.
Best of luck,
Michelle
