A day with no mayor climbs saw me still struggle a little bit with the weight of my backpack. I also said goodbye to a lovely couple.

Muir Pass would be the first of many high altitude passes that I would tackle almost every day for the rest of the John Muir Trail.

After resupplying with 10 days of food and struggling with the weight, I was gifted with one of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever experienced.
