Some hard ascents with more false tops. Met only one other pair of hikers all day. Got another long day tomorrow but we will make it. I guess Rob needs to finish soon as his knee is really bad, but as usual, I'm sad to see the last day come tomorrow. A little disappointed that we cut off a few miles today but it was the best thing to do under the circumstances.
Days are so short now, too.
None of us wanted to hike in the dark. First one jumped up on a rock not far from trail. I was by myself dragging behind the others. I stomped my foot and he ran the other way. Then as my heart was beating like crazy, I booked it straight up a steep ascent to catch up with Lynn and Rob.
