Day 105 - Great views today

Had some cold weather lately. Had to stop and buy some pants yesterday.

Passed by some lookouts offering great views of Penny.

Staying at George Bush Outerbridge Shelter tonight. Wanted to continue on but the campsites further along all had comments about bear encounters or, worse, the tent sites not being completely flat. In the shelter I can sleep on a nice flat surface and the bears can only come at me from one direction - I'll funnel them into a choke point where their numbers will count for nothing.

Tomorrow I hope to reach Eckville shelter, 25 miles away. I've only achieved 20 mile days a couple of times, so it will be a challenge.

Temperatures to drop to zero tonight. Should be interesting to see how my sleeping bag holds up.Read more
