Day 41 6/25 23mi.

Last night was cold and our morning started late because the cold made it hard to get out of our sleeping bags.

We did a few miles along the south fork of the Kern river. A guy named Frank that we met at Tom's yesterday caught up with us in the morning and we ended up hiking near him all day and taking breaks with him. The scenery was spectacular all day we were able to see huge mountains ahead of us all day. Throught the day we climbed from about 6000 feet up to 10500 feet and then did a bit of downhill to our camp at about 9400 feet. Tonight is shaping up to being even colder.

At one point during the day Carly, Frank, and I had a hard time finding the right trail. We went a lil down the wrong trail at one point, but quickly realized it and backtracked to the PCT. About a mile after that we ran into 2 hikers who had gone down that same wrong path for about 2 hours until they happened on some horseback riders who told them they'd been on the wrong trail the whole time!!
