Fri. June Nine Day 13 48 miles; 80s

We left our chain-link compound @ 7:30 this morning headed for Cuba.  A beautiful, light tail wind morning.  The highway was rolling with light traffic until 20 miles outside Cuba where traffic doubled, rockets in each direction.  We rolled into Cuba @ 1:00-good time for us.  We are staying in a Mom & Pop motel.  Feels amazing to shower off two days of salt and road grime, and to relax during the heat of the day. A CDT thru-hiker is staying here too.  Old guy who has done the PCT which he admitted was a piece of cake compared to his experience so far on the CDT.  He must carry 6 liters of water. We will leave early to tackle "perhaps" the toughest climbing section yet. Take care.
