2 miles Last night I made the decision to skip The Great Basin and hitch to Lander. It was a

0 miles So good to take a full day off trail, sleep in and basically relax all day, apart from

20.6 miles Leaving super early and under the cover of dark I hit the road towards Rawlins. Beating the heat

35.1 miles (56.5 km) A very long and boring day but my biggest distance yet. The entire day was spent

27.1 miles On the corner of the main road in Encampment there is a bench known as the hikers hitching

8.9 miles I woke to rain on my tent and hit the snooze button a couple of times on my

25.9 miles Reaching the border was on my mind from the get go this morning and I hit the ground

25.4 miles Last night must have been one of the warmest on trail. During the night I had to strip

22.7 miles Lara, the Trail Angel who I secured a ride with met me at my hotel right on time.
