AT Mile 247 to 343

Hi All,

 I finally have service to upload the next update. I hope to add the next one soon! I'll try to do better with pictures, but I don't do well in the rain and when I get to camp sometimes I start talking to people and forget to take pictures of them.

Links to latest updates are below:

Happy Trails,

Hi All,

I have copied a link to the audio update below. I don't think I gave Pearl's accent justice, but hope you enjoy all the same.

I will post the photos to the Google drive site when I have WiFi later today. Hopefully!

Mom, the rock photo is for you. Very cool formation.

Happy Trails,

Start to Mile 69.3

Hi All,

I have copied a link to the audio update below. I am sorry for the multiple files. I thought I could merge them on my phone, but no. Laying here in my hostel bed, it is way past hiker midnight for me to figure it out! I will have to be better prepared  next time.

Also having trouble with photos on blogger app so pasted a link to Google account. Enjoy!

Happy Trails,

Pictures!

We finally narrowed down some 3,000 photos to just under 200.  It is so hard after seeing so much.  I am not quite sure 200 photos will cover all, but at least you will have an idea what trail life looked like.  Just clock on the link below and it should take you to a public Picasa album.

Enjoy!

Numbers and Spreadsheets!

The Numbers:
For those that like to geek out on the numbers, I compiled all the camping data that Tiffany and I tracked throughout the trip.  Wow, we took quite a few Zero and Nero Days.  We are getting close to having the photo slideshow ready!

The main summary:

This is day by day, every mile on the trail.  Well, kind of; I did not include any of our extra miles that may have been needed to get to and from a town or detours for things like the Paradise Cafe.

Enjoy!

 

Happy Trails!!!
