May 2-4

What a weird day. Last nights's sleep was pretty terrible because of the insane wind, but we wanted to put in a lot of miles today. We didn't end up leaving our spot until about 7:15, which is one of our latest starts to date. We made it a few miles and took a break, made another, took a break. I think all of the climbing we did yesterday has caught up with us as neither of us had much energy. We made it to Guffy campground around 11 and decided to stay for lunch, and I even had a nap. After that it was another slow slog ahead, up a ski hill and around and to the highway. We crossed the highway and got water at the Grassy Hollow visitor center and moved on for another hour or so, before stopping at this nice open space with pine needles. Our day was over just before 5PM, definitely our shortest day yet. We still managed around 13 or 14 miles, but we needed to stop. Dinner was nice and relaxing, I was asleep at 6:30, Julia shortly after.
