Aug 19 – Blue Lake

August 19, 2012 by Beardoh

Late start since we got to camp so late last night. Also, we were awoke by thunder and rain starting. I got up to put up my tarp and the other guys had to set up their tents as they were cowboy camping.

Very steamy climb to start the day. Another one where we were all soaked with sweat very quickly early in the day. Actually a lot of the day was spent climbing. Got a few views of the big volcanic mtns in the not too far distance. Crossed the 2200 mile mark in the morning. Trail was smooth all day,and that feels like the redeeming feature of the state thus far.

Tonight we are camped at Blue Lake. Appears to be close to civilization as there are a lot of weekender campers. Nice spot.

Daily Distance: 26
Trip Distance: 2,203.2
