We got up early, got our last showers for a while and bought breakfast to eat later. We then drive to the trailhead parking lot to wait for our shuttle.
She arrived promptly at 8:15 for the 8:30 pickup and the four of us waiting for her loaded up and we were off in the midst following the same path the 8:00 shuttle took.
The road had wash outs and a truck on its side with the lights still on. We stopped to render aid but the vehicle was empty.
We started on the trail at about 10:45 am and we got to the camping past Spanish Creek at roughly mile 11 just before 4:00 pm. Dark will be roughly 5:30 but there is a cloud bank over the ocean.
I’ve called Happy6 “Gazelle” before. She just floats down the trail. Today she left the other hikers in our group behind early and the six hikers in the shuttle fifteen minutes ahead of us she passed up before the lighthouse.
I’ll update this. We finished a day early.
Day one 11.7 miles. Day two we finished at mile 25.4. Almost fourteen miles. So much rock and sand and water crossing. My feet are sore. But I get a shower.
More details and many pictures in the Recap.
