Thursday: (08/06) Another smoky day.
Not bad trail today.
An interesting pod flower an an interesting me with tree.It was nice enough to share me on a break. Still lots of burnt areas though,
A nice spring about 1/2 mile beyond Deadfall lake.
I stopped at Deadfall Lake for dinner but I wanted more miles so I continued another 3.5 miles to camp at a trailhead. Good weather except for a lot of smoke in the air. Met lots of other hikers today, some heading North as I am and some heading South doing sections or day hiker. One couple, Burgundy and Giggles, passed me last night but they caught up to me again at White Ridge Spring. I stopped for dinner at Dead Fall Lake. There was a big group camping there. Evidently one of there party is a paraplegic. He caught his first fish here and wanted to return. He came in on a four wheel bike. He’ll be on the lake in a pontoon boat and they intend to take up to the peak above the lake. Note, it was 3.5 miles on to the lake already. He and his friends are determined.
