A cold day in the Whites
Rock climbing for years in Tuolumne and Joshua Tree did not prepare me for descending wet slab with a pack in the Whites.
Bruce the Trail Angel helped me resupply in Gorham and get back on trail.
Came into Gentian in the dark, soaking wet, very cold. Met Ali Baba and we had a nice chat way past hiker midnight.
It was freaking cold.
