| no partners | | Up Mount Baldy Road to Thunder Mountain. Nice views during sunrise, but the peak's a little underwhelming. It's the top of the ski lift and likely more exciting in winter. From Thunder, I headed down Three Ts Trail and up to Telegraph Peak - much more satisfying up there. Three Ts is good single-track, while the other 10 miles are a road-walk.
Some light cloud cover built up during my descent, providing some cool light changes on the landscape. Haven't really seen clouds on a hike at all in the last two months so I'll take what I can get.
This is training hike 2 of 4 in the next couple weeks, gradually leading up a long, special day at the beginning of September. I feel pretty good about everything, except my knee is getting weird around 12 miles which is not cool. Hoping I can figure that out in the next two weeks. |
