Shots of Tim (Norseman) and Ulf (NoZero) gettin' it done a few weeks ago, down at Walker Pass. Beer works a solvent to clear trail dust; a proven "scientific" fact....

Good thing you cannot see Tim's feet in that above photo. Apparently he had to rip of a few toenails. Patched it up with duct tape and off he went. Something like that...

So the PCT will not let up. Today we crossed 22 miles of pizza oven like desert. By 10am it was 93 degrees and at 1pm it hit 105. I can't keep enough water in my system. My urine color goes between yellow and a mustard yellow. But the new issue was blood in my pee. There is no shade in this section and you are constantly under the sun's intense heat. Chris picked me up where the Interstate 10 meets the PCT. I'm resting in a hotel till midnight where I will start the climb up San Jacinto Mountain. The climb starts at 1,800ft and goes to 8,800 ft. I figure climbing a steep desert mountain in darkness is smarter than in the noon heat. Stay tuned..

He's got 20 miles and a bowl of oatmeal to go before hitting the finish line.

He's suppose to stop or end his walk at my place of work! Hope I get the chance to meet this Marine.
Peace

He's less than 10 miles from the border (I told him to turn around before it's too late).

A few moments from yesterday. He and NoZero were blasting the last 1/2 mile when they heard our hoots and hollerz!
