We finally caught a break today. It wasn’t much of one, but it couldn't have come at a better time.
OldTimer, Top O', and I have had a frustrating string of low-mileage days. The weather and terrain have kept us for the last week from hiking the distances we'd normally walk in a day.
That changed today, though not significantly so. We again had to stop before we wanted because of the weather. At least this time we were able to walk 12 miles. Importantly, those miles put us close enough to the base of Grays Peak to climb it tomorrow morning.
