I love reading your updates, and look forward to the next one. I want to pledge my support, and will look into doing that. The OCT sounds very civilized, unlike the Sierra. Be careful out there and enjoy every trail moment!

another great adventure. I assume "Barkely" was named after the Barkely ulltramarthon, toughest race on earth

The feet, for course. Makes sense. Poor feet. I love that Jim maintains he could smell water from afar...that is so Jim. I hope you can at least smell bears from afar...if you're downwind from them.

Pudding & KarMMA, I continue to enjoy your narratives...very engaging, educational and even funny. ;-) I love how Barkley the dog was introduced in this last post...it makes complete sense that there is a whole PCT dog culture out there. Curious, I have heard PCT stories of peoples' bodies changing as a result of the rigor...have you lost a lot of weight? KarMMA does not have to answer that question.

Loved catching up with this fun and exciting update! You two remain two of my fav thru-hikers to walk through MVR's gates. I'm hoping for some SOBO's for Thanksgiving! Sending lots of love! Chery (aka Mountain Mama)
