Day 137 Tues Sept 2nd



Slept like a rock. We were hiking by 6am, more uphill, but by the end of the day today, we'd be in Stehekin, so were were energized and ready to go! I was feeling great and motored right up Suiattle Pass. It was a cold morning, plants were covered in frost and we were in hats and gloves, brrrr, it feels like September in Washington state, that is for sure! Once we were at the top of the pass, it was basically all downhill the whole afternoon! Beautiful blue sky today, this is the type of weather we were looking for! Nice! Lunch break by Hemlock Camp and only 12 more miles to the road to town! By 5pm, we were at the ranger's station waiting for the busride to town! We loaded up at 6:15 and enjoyed the ride! Camped out for free on the outskirts of town after a great dinner at the Landing, what a day, and boy are we happy to be here!!!

Hey Guys!

Congrats (a bit in advance) on completion of this mind boggling accomplishment! I've been meaning to write for a while and say that you two have some of the best (if not THE best) PCT pictures out there.

It's been fun reading your blog and checking out the most recent scenery.

Have a safe trip back to NH, hope to see you there one day.
