June 3, in to Atlantic City

Happy’s summary

We got up and were on the trail before 6:00.

Wind often starts around 10:00. It hit by 6:43 am with 30 mph gusts almost non-stop.

Sunrise was beautiful.

Terrain was great.

Saw Hopper.

Finally got out of the wind about a mile before Wild Bill’s.

Showers. Laundry. Real food.

Great conversation with Wild Bill.

Reel that captures our hiking the last few days

Humbled showed up!!!

He only took a Nero on his town visit, hitching back to the trail at 5:30 am and was basically half a day behind us.

We talked plans and he has a friend who works at Glacier.

South Pass agreed to stay open half an hour late and we caught a ride there and back to get our ice axes, spikes, bear canisters and mail (Happy’s replacement InReach since hers broke and my hat).

We catch a shuttle tomorrow with Humbled for our next stage.
