Stage Stop Inn
It was hard to leave the comfortable Stage Stop Inn this morning, but I finally hit the trail at 8:30 AM. I decided to spend one more night camping.

Thanksgiving and Turkey
I asked if there were any restaurants open and there weren’t. Looked like freeze dried for dinner instead of a nice Thanksgiving dinner.

Passed the 700 Miles Mark

Nothing Like Trail Magic
Not only was there a campsite just outside the gate, but there was also trail magic. A cooler had all kinds of things like beer, fruit, cookies, toiletries, etc

The Home Stretch
This will be my last week. I’m in the home stretch. The plan is to stop at the Canelo Pass Trailhead. That is where I stopped my northbound hike in March.
