Day 71: Etna, CA (0.0 miles - 1597.2)

July 17, 2016 - Took just my 3rd zero day of my entire hike here in Etna.

Spent the day resting up and mentally preparing for the last 1000 miles of my journey.

I tried to sleep in but still woke up at 6am but had a great night sleep on a bed. Once everyone woke up in the hostel we took the bikes to Bob’s Ranch House for breakfast, had to have some pancakes. On the way back I stopped at the store to buy food for lunch as I spent the rest of the morning and early afternoon watching movies on TV.

Then the afternoon just hung around with the other hikers as new ones arrived. Then went back to the store to buy supplies to get me to Seiad Valley and for dinner tonight. Several people bought stuff to grill so I got some hot links. The hot links we nice but ate too much.

I even had time to order a new camera online as my camera just hasn’t been working properly since I dropped it back in Castle Crag State Park.

Watching one more movie while packing up so I can head out early in the morning.
