PCT Day 35: The Good, the Bad & the Ugly

Daily Miles: 25.1, Total Miles: 583.4

The Good – I feel fine after my bout with giardia! I made it to the next water at Golden Oaks Spring. Good views of the Mohave Desert, Edwards Air Force Base and the Tehachapi Mountains to the south.

The Bad – the first eight miles through cowpies and wind turbines. Even worse was the next few miles paralleling Highway 58.

And the Ugly – the constantly blowing and gusting winds, nearly knocking me over at times, dangerous on the steep ridges, and like sleeping next to a freight train.
