Cool day, long water carry ahead of 25 miles. We slept in a grocery store parking lot last night, hehe. Hoping to make the Andersons by 6:30 for taco salads.

TrailAngel GoalTech took a photo of this motley crew, somewhere around mile 472. (L-R) Mack, Six-Two, Hendrix, Tiny Dancer and Husk.

A bunch of us got permission from the grocery store to sleep in their parking lot the night before. We didn't have enough time to get out of town and this was the best option available. Photo courtesy of The Animal.

Hendrix and the Ague Dulce monster. Hendrix is the one in the green.

Strange junkyard(?) with airplane. I’ve heard this is used for filming movies, but uncertain.

The day felt like this…over and over again. Ascending into fog. This stretch is notorious hot. I knew we were super lucky with the cooler weather.

Strange, but sitting on the trail was really the best place to eat lunch. Mac, Hendrix and Tiny Dancer.

A couple of ultrarunning heroes I met before, Scott Jurek and Kristin Moehl. Cool!

    1. Remember he installed the jet pack in the vortex of James’ camper. It’ll make this trip fast.

      Hope all is well undertaker.

  1. Ah, you are at The Andersons….I look forward to your updates when you finally are back on trail in 5-10 days. 🙂 To get free of The Andersons, just get up and catch the first van ride out of town before anyone is awake.
