Day 71 - Around the Lake

Day 71 - Thursday, July 5
Phipps Creek (1,114.6) to Squaw Creek (1,142.9)
Miles today - 28.3
The terrain was easy for most of the day and we had 17 miles done before lunch. After lunch there was some awesome ridge walking with good views of Lake Tahoe to the east.

We're camping near the top of Squaw Valley ski area. It's cold and windy up here, but it keeps the mosquitoes away.

I was reading some of my journal entries from the first couple weeks of the hike. It's weird because it feels like it all just happened yesterday, but at the same time it seems like so long ago. I'm making so many new vivid memories in such a short time out here that I think it's distorting my perception of time.
