Bundle-o-yardsticks?

DAY FORTY-THREE, June 21, 14.2 Miles (9 miles Kearsarge Pass)
At mile 789.5
Rather cold this morning, frozen shoes, frozen socks, frosty tent, knee-deep ford ten metres from camp. Magic. Shoes thawed in the creek then refroze on my feet. As soon as I hit sun, hour break. Left the trail to take the Kearsarge Pass side-trail for resupply. Very happy with that decision as the pass and valley below is about the best part I've seen of the Sierra so far. Independence is a nice wee town, The Courthouse Motel is wondrous. Bishop zero tomorrow.
