SHR Update #1: Made it to Red’s

Howdy y’all,

Just a quick update from the Sierra High Route. SpiceRack and I have spent the past week pushing south from Twin Lakes through incredibly challenging terrain. In short, the rewards have been tremendous. Today we made it to Red’s Meadow and are surrounded by other hikers, dirt and wide smiles the defining features. Two days ago we saw no one but each other. In Spice’s words, “The CDT ain’t got nothing on this.”

Tomorrow, we keep hiking south towards our next resupply in Bishop. It’s going to be hot, and it’s going to be hard. It is also going to totally rule. I can’t wait, and fortunately don’t have to.

And here are some sweet photos that Spice has taken of our first week:

Thanks for the photos, Spice!
