Day 15: Made it to Idyllwild (148.2 – 151.8)

Day 15: Made it to Idyllwild (148.2 – 151.8)

Today we got to Idyllwild. We hiked 7.36km.

Idyllwild is so nice. We went to the gear shop Nomad and I finally bought a pump. We also saw Mayor Max, the dog.

I sent my Nemo switchback to Seattle and had a huge salad.

I saw blaze physio – Morgan today and she said my foot is fine and I can just continue and should do heel stretches 3 times 1 minute daily.

So glad I don’t have to get off trail.

Glad I got to talk to Jenny and Markus today.

Resupplied for 8 days – the biggest food carry yet. Kate and I will head out tomorrow morning. At 10.00. Excited for the long outdoor experience to Mt San Jacinto 🫶

Met Web Cutter again in PVC – I was on the same shuttle to CLEEF as him so we started on the same day
