The wind was in my face all morning. I met Bill from Maine. He is the first AZT hiker I have met with a full pack.

Later I crossed paths with 31 middle school students from Flagstaff Junior Academy on mountain bikes riding 70 miles in 3 days. Flagstaff to Grand Canyon. 3 adult riders and 2 drivers of support vehicles. We should all be that fortunate to attend a school like that.

I finally got back into the trees (including aspen) and walked until almost dark.
