Near Wrightwood


April 27-29
I'm gonna keep it short because I am very tired. I've been pushing it because there's nothing else to do besides walk. Tomorrow I'll only do 15 miles then I'm at a campground that's close to the town that's next. I got to eat McDonald's today. 

The trail!
April 27-29
Heyo! I did some good morning miles today while finding an alternate way around the poodle dog section. I found a lady "Bone Lady" who I guess hates poodle dog more than me and created detours or longer ways around them that follow roads so I hopped on that today. It was about 6 miles on a road instead of 4 through the bush. Sounds like a no brainer to me. Met up with Bean who I haven't seen for a week or so. He's a young guy from Idaho. He said he didn't know about the detour and went through it. "I was doing the crab walk for about 4 miles trying to avoid it." I'm glad I didn't have to go though it! He jetted off after our conversation and I took a snack break as this is an easier day for me. I got to a campground and took a 2 hour nap where I was out cold when some funny day hikers came and woke me up. I passed them earlier and got stuck in conversation for 30 mins or so. I headed off and met a southbound section hiker who was an old timer. First thing he said was "Do you still have any weed?" I've never met the guy but he was funny and I got stuck in a conversation with him for a while too. So, all in all, I did about 12-15 miles in my normal timeframe, I just got sidetracked a few times and took a few naps. Good day. 
Where's the snow?
