04-09-13 Somewhere with a view



Holy smokes! We woke up with a beautiful sunrise from our tent door. The tents looked like they had been rained upon, a real mountain dew. Never mind the moisture, today was a "lazy" morning with only 12.6 miles on the docket.

By time we beat feet, the temps only required a short sleeve shirt and the sun was magnificent. There was no shortage of views from the get go. We started with Charlies Bunion and moved on to repeated ridges with views on each side.

Somewhere along the way we met up with Wooden Spoon and passed the time between views learning about how to make wooden spoons. Lunchtime was spent on top of a 80 foot cliff overlooking another view (sense a theme?). In 45 minutes we were joined by DNA, Enoch, and Bulldog.

The rest of the afternoon went by in a blur. Arrived at Tri-Corner Knob Shelter to find it full and camping spots at a premium. Found a marginal spot near the bear cables where we are plotting our next move in shelter chess.
