In case you haven’t guessed, my phone pretty much died (still working on it) while hiking the Chilkoot Trail so that’s the delay in me rolling out my Chilkoot blogs. They’ll have to wait as I head off to hike the Tahoe Rim Trail tomorrow. The TRT is 170 miles and my goal is to hike it in 8 days. I’ve stowed away my Chilkoot winter gear and I’m getting ready for some heat and dry sections.
