Miles: 369.3 – 379.5
The owner of the Inn made us all a lovely breakfast of eggs, fruit, cereal and toasted bagels this morning, and after a second breakfast of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, Allen and I got a ride in to town. I ran a couple errands, got a big sandwich and then we hitched a ride back to the trail. Since it was already well into the afternoon, we only had enough time to summit Baden Powell (in the sun! Yay!) and set up camp a few miles up the trail. It was my first night sleeping on snow and I was surprised to feel the cold seeping up through my inflated sleeping pad, but the view of the sunset on the icy landscape was so quiet and peaceful that I didn’t mind.
