Day 47

22 miles

It continuously poured all night. Every time I woke up to roll over you could here it coming down harder and harder. By the time we woke up though the rain had stopped. We were quick to pack up and get out because 1, it was cold, and 2, we wanted to get to the next shelter earlier enough in case it started pouring again to grab a spot inside the shelter.

The trail leaving the shelter and most of today is entirely a stream. Water is flooding the trail in spots and everything is wet. The only bright sides were that the elevation was relatively easy today and the rain didn’t start back up today. We walked in cool overcast weather all day. Nothing too exciting or extravagant happened today. Just lots of hiking. We did indeed make it earlier enough to the shelter to nab a spot.
