July 18 – Day 2
Long day of hiking 8 or 9 miles depending on who you ask. Theresa called it the “Monster March” – 11 am to 8 pm. We started thinking of different names we could call our team — Impossible Headbands” for the “Impossible Headlands we kept coming across that would send us inland to cross. We crossed a river by two person trolley. We had to pull ourselves by rope to finish. It was FUN!
I liked our tribe name – MaWoTe – (MaSanda, Woody, Theresa). Do you notice how creativity starts to take over when you have time to create?
What are you creating today?
We arrived at Tsusiat Falls and camped by ourselves by a cave. Theresa ran into a marmot like creature. I think they scared each other. She probably invaded his house. He checked out ours all night. Woody hung up one pack with food and thankfully nobody had dinner on us that night.
After spending hours hiking on the beach there was a serenity that came over me that night. My feet were throbbing and the cool sand cooled them off and all was well in our world…
