Day 24. Camped at 459.6 (5.1)
Patched air mattress. REI run and got new patches. Got up to date on a lot of stuff and made it out of Agua Dulce at 6:20pm. Walked until sunset and set up camp just off trail on a saddle.

Day.25. To 478.2 (18.6)
Had a good walk into Casa de Luna today. Saw a fox. It got pretty warm out today and I was almost out of water when I got off trail. Stuck out my thumb and first car gave me a ride to the store. Eating ice cream at 2:00. Hung out at Casa de Luna: put on Hawaiian shirt, hugged Teri, ate Tavo Salad, danced for class bandana, etc.

Hot dry descent into Hiker Town today.Got there around 1:30. Relaxed for awhile then went to Wee Vill Market for lunch and some trail snacks. Left Hiker Town at 7:15 and walked about 5 more miles before stopping for the night.

Day 28. Camped at 352.9 (30.5)
Hiked along LA Aquaduct and through the Mojave. Cooler day with lots of wind so it was comfortable hiking this usually hot stretch of trail. Lots of wind turbines and climbing. Felt good and made my forst 30 mile day on the PCT. Ended in a burn area just before a wind farm, fortunately I was able to find a reasonably good place to camp.

Day 29. To Tehachapi at 565.5 (12.6)
Got offered a ride before I reached the highway so I took it. Coppertone was at Willow Springs Rd. Passed a ton more wind turbines today along Tehachapi Pass.
