OOO
I will be out hiking in Yosemite starting Thursday, back in civilization on Monday. I am planning a hike down the John Muir Trail, from Toulumne Meadows to Yosemite Valley.
This is my first extended solo hike. I feel ready. I am curious if I’ll go a little nutty by myself.
It should be a fun trip. I hope I don’t forget anything crucial. From the experience of my last trip I am bringing more toilet paper.
I seem to be missing a few items. Notably a pack towel and the lid to my pan set. Oh well, nothing that can’t be replaced. I am also concerned that I am bring way too much food. It’s not like MN, where I can just leave it in my car and not worry. It seems the black bears in Yosemite have been known to break into cars without any compunction.
Although I really enjoy viewing wildlife, I sure don’t want to see bears or puma too closely on this trip.
It’s too late tonight for more, you’ll have to wait for the trip report.
