One thing that’s been consistent these last 33 days is long and heavy water carries.  Today was, hopefully, the last big water carry for some time (there could be more in Northern California and Oregon).

I am now only 17 miles away from Kennedy Meadows, so I should get there early tomorrow afternoon instead of Thursday morning.

It’s funny, when I left Tehachapi my bear canister was completely full of food and very heavy.  I thought that maybe I was bringing to much food.  But now I have just enough to get to Kennedy Meadows, and now I am thinking that it wouldn’t have hurt to bring just a little bit more.

Baby rattler, probably a western diamondback… rattlesnake no. 7
