Cathy and I did some miles that count for THE hike. She hiked with me the very first day, and then a few miles in Marquette, and she hopes to do the final day with me. We might manage to squeeze in one of the few remaining days I have in the Manistee NF, too.
Some of you may recognize the sign board behind us. We did the section that goes through Big M, the Udell Hills. This is the intersection with the Sky Pilot Trail. Yes, we know the NCT blazing is bad here in particular and all through this section. I think it's on the priority to-do list for this summer. One of the great things about Big M is there are so many trails, you can do all sorts of interesting loops. Here's one I did a couple of years ago. We are contemplating some interesting loop for next week.
And we ended at the Little Manistee River. The trail has left the course of the Manistee, but we're not yet away from its tributaries.
In other news: I paid money to get a phone that isn't going to be dead as soon as I buy it. Of course, it looks as if some of the apps aren't going to transfer correctly. I also bought groceries. That's a shocker right there. I may have to get a "real" job to be able to eat.
Miles today: 6.7. Total miles so far: 4681.6.
