We went back later on and climbed Baden Powell. I have every intention of doing a future road trip and catching some of the sections I've had to skip. Snow, injuries, and sickness have unfortunately hit several times, but I'm still out here and still headed north. I'm not worried about hitting every mile, just enjoying what the trail throws at me and the people I'm with.

Erin! Hello! Glad you’re doing ok, hope you start to feel better with the altitude sickness! I was watching someone on the Appalachian trail and they were not feeling well, and feeling nauseous they mentioned they take ginger (form of a pill) from a natural food store to help with that! Walmart or Amazon has them also you could get! Hope that helps! I am in no way of a medicine person or even close to someone who knows about medicine or what not but I heard about that on another channel!! Hope you’re doing well and it sounds like you are enjoying yourself out there!!!

My sawyer didn't work at the same water source a few years ago. Turns out I needed to flush it with white vinegar to get the calcium build up out from when I'd flushed it with hard water at my home! So fun seeing the first few mils of the hike! Woot Woot!
