Day 144 (November 14)

Zest and I started hiking at 6:47 this morning. It was cold all day, but we made 22 miles. I don't think it got above freezing today. At noon, I had ice hanging from my beard. We have eight days of hiking remaining according to our self-imposed schedule. Tonight we are in a hostel run by a couple from England. It is unlike the typical hostel. Luxurious. I guess it's a bit like a hostel in England: no mice, grand furnishings, TV, showers, modern plumbing, etc. 

We hope to do 10 miles tomorrow. Got some great views. Take care.
