I hiked the southern 5 miles of the AZT Passage 28 a couple weeks ago, so on Sunday I started at the northern end at the Gooseberry Springs TH. No one at the 59 degree TH when I got there at 8:30am. Hiked a little over 5 miles in to Schuffs Tank, took a break to take in the sights and started back. This has to be one of the flattest sections I've hiked on the AZT. There were a couple of very minor climbs but really that was it, pretty flat for the most part and the trail was in great shape. Most of the section I did was in the shade of the Pines and the Gambel Oak. The weather was perfect as the clouds and the wind kept the temps in the low 70's all day. Passed by 2 women on horseback on the way out and that was it for the day. A perfect way for a mental refresh. I need to go back and finish the middle section at some point, but passage 28 is long at 30 miles so it will take me a couple more times.
