DAY SIXTY-ONE, July 9, 31.2 Miles
At mile 1163
Good morning, hiked well, bagged Tinker Knob (only third for the hike so far, perhaps I should make more of an effort). Had lunch in one of the Sierra Club huts, reading a National Geographic article on Tongariro NP, wee bit homesick. Passing through another ski resort and below it hit the worst (albeit small) patch of snow yet. The afternoon dragged on and forever. Donner Pass was nothing like I imagine it was in 1846 (ask wikipedia). Passed under Interstate 80 and onto Peter Grubb Hut. Had a great night there with Paul and Matt from trekfortroops.com and a family.
