| no partners | | We were one day behind because of the storms. Indian Wilderness is one of those permit places where you have to be permitted for the specific region of it that you will be in on the date planned. Oh well. We really tried.
This part of our loop was supposed to be 2/4 of our plan. Unfortunately my sister was having so much trouble keeping a pace that things had to change more. Even after I took on a 1/3 of her pack weight, she couldn't hack it. Once we returned, we would find that she was having heart failure and her legs had become balloons (back to better currently, but still doing tests for the whys).
So we rolled into Betty and Bob Lake, met a friendly Forest Lady (the only person seen up here), and set up camp. Sister mostly fished and rested, Noel went up to Bob to paint, and I continued my offtrail route to the saddle to scope out our next night at Woodland Lake.
After talking over the troubles sister was having and all the post rain and next rain possibilities, it was clear we would not continue to Woodland and Jasper. So we cut off those two hikes and a day and headed back the way we came instead of looping.
