Wednesday 29 April 2009

As predicted the weather broke today with several thunderstorms - the afternoon saw me hiking along an exposed ridgeline as storms threatened all around. I was trying to hike the 7 miles to the next shelter as fast as possible, but was impeded by the fact that at lunchtime I'd eaten a large pizza, some cheesy bread sticks and drank 1.5 litres of fizzy pop. Finally made it to the shelter, but the storms were all bark and no bite.

Into Atkins tomorrow to resupply - looks like I'll need to take my first steps into the world of hitch hiking as the town is 3 miles off the trail and I'm not walking extra miles if I can avoid them.
