We left East Glacier and headed south.
Happy’s account for yesterday.
Seventeen and a half miles later and ten wet feet water crossings we were at a campsite at mile 124.9 having started at mile 99.4.
We took the High Water /Two Medicine stock trail to avoid overgrowth and blowdowns.
We had ten wet feet water crossings (about ankle deep) in six miles.
Happy suggested that this was the time to not “embrace the suck” and do something else.
Hiking out we met Crusher who started the week before we did and road walked all of Colorado.
I feel like I’m fighting off “con crud” or something. Not what I want to head into a large wilderness area with. I’m feeling less healthy now that I did this morning.
We caught a ride from the trailhead to East Glacier with the trail crew that was doing maintenance (they were rotating out).
