May 2 – Gate 3

May 2, 2012 by Beardoh

Breezy night again. Cowboy camped, which was fine…nice to see the stars and moon.

Only one water spot for the day…it was roughly in the middle,which was good. Lots of folks congregated around all the plastic water jugs which make up the water cache. There was no natural water, so volunteers bring out water for the PCT hikers.

Camp spot is at another water cache. Lots of people camped here…maybe 40 again, like last night.

Saw two snakes during the day. Not sure what kind, but not rattlesnakes. Got a bunch of cactus needles stuck in my leg as well…that didn’t feel good.. took a while to get them all out.

Daily Distance: 22
Trip Distance: 90.6
