Day 37 6/21 23.5mi.
We started the day fairly early with a big climb. The climb wasn't as tough as I was expecting and it felt awesome first thing in the morning. Then we slowly meandered downhill for many miles and then slightly back uphill.
We stopped for lunch at a small hunting cabin that was 0.2 miles off the trail with Avocado and Chow down. It was nice to eat lunch in the shade. We kept up the good pace after lunch and made it 20 miles by 6pm when we stopped to get water from a cache at a small campground.
We did another three miles or so up a steep incline and found a place to camp with Dr. Huss.
Our campsite for the night was up in a saddle between to mountains and was therefore very windy. We managed to find a little bit of protection behind some trees, but it was still a very windy and loud night.
The past few days, ever since we left the town of Mojave, have been very dry. We've had to carry water for 15-25 miles from every water source!
