The plan for today was for a short five mile hike that would not tax her too much.  As Pam said, she “made a bad decision” and carried on for nearly 10 miles.  That decision turned out well in the end, as she is camping in a beautiful location, commenting “this is everything I dreamed it would be.”The weather is turning colder, but Pam is well equipped and has been plenty warm thus far.

The next few days of hiking will be marked by numerous lakes, rivers and streams. It should be beautiful.
