The climb out of Sulphur Springs was steep but it turned out to be a pleasant day. However, I'm getting so tired and not bouncing back after my zero days like I would like. The heat during the day is tortuous. I am drinking lots of water but have no appetite.
When I reached the Spur trail of Pacifico Mountain Road we were overjoyed to see several trail angels. One in particular I want to acknowledge is Meadow Mary. She provided me with gatorade, fresh fruit and emergency vitamins & minerals in powder form. I sweat so much and guess I'm losing more than weight. I've been told I'm losing electrolites and I have lost at least 30 lbs.
I heard there is a 'heat advisory' - I'll vouch for that. I'll be glad when it cools down a little.
Hey, thanks to all of you who are cheering me on! I'll keep you posted!!!
Keep hiking,
Greybeard
