Journey Day 8 | PCT Day 8

Tehachipis through a fool's hole, California

4/24/85

A good day which began badly as we arose early and hiked off in sunny surroundings.  Apparently yesterday’s toils were still being felt. I was sluggish, stopping. Finally made Warner Springs in a pool of sweat. 

Dumped items:

tent (keeping fly)

jeans

wool shirt

almanac

extra flashlight

Warner Springs was a neat break. A resort on the move in the middle of nowhere.

Rested and drank pop. Afternoon hiking went well and we made a spot 14-15 miles down the trail. Our first fire, and the feeling of a good day under our belts, made the night relaxing.
