Heading South of Kearney
I was hiking south of Kearney by 9:15 AM. The trail was mostly up. It was a clear day and although hot, certainly not as hot as yesterday.

Short Stop in Kearney, AZ
I decided to go into Kearney today for a couple of reasons. The rocks have finally got the better of my right foot. I’m going to rest the foot for half a day.

500 Miles!
I took several breaks in the heat, which slowed me down. Despite that, I went over the 500 miles mark today in both map miles and actual miles hiked.

Trouble Getting Out of Globe
I believed there would be trouble getting to the trail from Globe this morning, so I tried to arrange a shuttle. No luck. The hotel owner offered a short ride.
