GDT 28 – Skyline Trail

August 16, 2018 by SweetPea

Daily Miles: 18 Total Miles: 453 We were totally wrong about it being a warm night last night. It turned out to be quite cold by morning. Most likely, the fact that our campsite was sandwiched between two small streams made it colder. When we woke … [Read more...]

GDT 23 – Saskatchewan Crossing

August 10, 2018 by SweetPea

Daily Miles: 16 Total Miles: 357 It seems like we were both dreading this day, and when our alarms went off we opted to stay in our hammocks for another half hour. Anything to delay the expected misery of the day. Finally we got up and packed up. … [Read more...]

GDT 22 – Whiterabbit Pass

August 9, 2018 by SweetPea

Daily Miles: 19 Total Miles: 341 Holy cow are we exhausted! We got up at 5:15am and were on the trail within half an hour. We walked for less than five minutes before we descended to a meadow that was really cold. We had to stop and get out our … [Read more...]
