I left the General Kearney Inn a little after 8 AM and walked out to the highway. I was hoping for a fast pickup hitch, and I got one within 20 minutes. It was a lady who picked me up, which is unusual. Most woman won’t pickup a hitchhiker. I was fortunate since she took me to the exact spot where I left the trail yesterday.
I was hiking by 9:15 AM. The trail was mostly up. I didn’t count the elevation gain. I don’t want to know. It was a clear day and although hot, certainly not as hot as yesterday.

The hiking day ended at 5 PM. Before I setup my tent, I looked around. No close mountains! Tomorrow should be a bit easier.
