We woke up at the Bohn’s cabin about 4:30 AM. Dawn and I packed our gear and had breakfast. We thanked Gary and Janet for their generous hospitality and were off by 6:45 AM.
Dawn and I hiked together for awhile until I had to stop for a few minutes. Dawn continued on. She was on her way to the Mormon post office to pickup supplies, so I wasn’t sure whether I would see her again today.
The trail was relatively easy with small ascents and descents.in the Coconino National Forest. I didn’t see anyone until late afternoon when Scott caught up with me. I found out he had not left Flagstaff until almost noon two days ago. Then he lost his trekking poles, so he backtracked five miles looking for them. He never did find them. He’ll get new ones in Pine.
I found a good campsite about 4:30 and setup. Back to the outside freezing temperatures in my tent.
