We planned for a big day but not this big. The campsite we wanted to camp at was full. There was nothing for 3miles. And it was steep downhill with overgrown sections, washed out sections and lots of blowdowns.  In the dark. Not fast. At one point Atlas said “I’m glad you’re here.” My feelings exactly. By myself it would have been a bit scary. Together it was an adventure.  We got to camp at 9:30.  Oh well. It puts us closer to Stehekin.
