9.5 miles, easy

The walk was all on roads today, mostly dirt. It was COLD and windy all night. It snowed a bit during the night but nothing stuck. It was cold all day too, and my knees, which have been feeling a bit sore and stiff, were really unhappy walking in the cold. Now the wind in Hite is just raging and we’re hiding on the leeward side of the ranger station.

Tonight our friend Jeff is driving down from Salt Lake City to meet up with us and hike this section starting tomorrow. Should be really fun!
