Fabulous day today. Started out at the third gate water cache left The gang sleeping, headed out at 6am. Ran in to OB after a mile or so and we hiked together all day. We set a steady pace and ground through miles. 14 miles in 6 hours.

.
Passed 100 miles!

.
Got my photos at eagle rock, and seeing that there wasn’t any cover to camp, decided to finish the four miles to Warner Springs. Ate some free hotdogs, went to the post office to forward my package, went next door to eat and get a beer.

.
Met a whole new crowd, and ran into Stefani and Michaela! Poured them a beer, ate with them, and seeing as they were determined to put in a few more miles asked if they wanted me along. Next thing you know I’m hiking again on top of the 19 I had already put in!

.
We rolled in to camp just in time to pitch tents, socialize a little, and go to bed.

.
Have some videos too, will post them to the YouTube site when I can.
