Up to now the trail has generally been heading northward. Now we are making a sharp left turn, and for almost the next couple hundred miles the trail is heading generally westward.
Even though I got a late start today, due to leaving town, it was, by far, my most lackadaisical hiking pace yet. I knew I would have no problem getting to my destination, so no need to burn up the track, I just hiked at a nice, relaxed pace all day. It felt a little strange to be hiking without a sense of urgency, I almost felt like I was getting behind even though I knew I wasn’t. I had a nice camp spot, with water, at Little Bear Spring Trail Camp.
Sorry animals using wheels, this trail is for animals using feet
Pretty nice trail today out of Big Bear

A nice view of Big Bear Lake
Not a normal hiker lunch, but I think it’s nice to have a somewhat normal meal the first day out of town
