Today we are lucky to have a guest blogger:
Hey Ya'll,
Katie AKA BooBoo Kitty Soft Paws here guest blogging for IT (Ingrid & Tracy). Welllll it wuz just another beautiful day of wilderness walkn'.
Last night we cowboy camped around two miles from Shelter Cove Resort, for sale BTW, on cliff overlooking Elk Lake. The moon was full and bright over the water. It sure wuz purdy.
The day started with an uphill section, niiiice on a chilly morning, crossed Highway 58 near Williamette Ski Resort and traveled to Lower Rosary Lake. The mountains and trees were perfectly reflected on the sapphire water as we ate breakfast. Muk Muk, Dingo, Mudd, Coincidence, and Sneeks showed up and it was the beginning of what would become a super social lake day on the trail. I misread Halfmile's app and announced that we had a twenty three mile stretch without water. Toooootal buzz kill. Thank lil' baby Jesus in a manger someone mentioned the next water was Bobby Lake, only seven miles ahead. Bobby should be pronounced as Sacha Cohen pronounced it in Talladega Nights, Boobee.
Welp...seven miles later at beautiful Boobee lake we had lunch with all the folks from Lower Rosary Lake plus Drop Bizkut, Acid Glasses, and Butters. Coincidence charged Ingrid's iPod with his battery charger.
Charlton Lake was the afternoon break location. IT took a swim and enjoyed some sun. There were families swimming and playing there who had hiked up from Waldo Lake. Drop Bizkut had a hilarious convo about words for Boobees.
The last several miles of the day meandered through a burned area with sun bleached trees and colorful undergrowth. IT skipped along this section singing the french version of Edith Piaf's No Regrets.
We camped in a cozy spot a mile before Taylor Lake.
XOXO
