Monday April 3
Miles today 2.8
Total miles 80
Bly gap to muskrat creek shelter
Today was rained out. We packed up our gear just in time before all the rain started. The hike out of Bly gap was killer. And we were in a cloud/fog/cold and windy rain. We had told our hiking partners we would meet them at the next shelter in 2.8 miles and decide what to do there, keep going or hang out until the storm passed. When we met up at the shelter it was supposed to continue raining all day but be clear the next day so we called it and held up our rain flys to set up the tents so they would be dry and just hung out until the next day. The rain came off and on during the day but cleared up in the evening although it never got very warm or sunny so nothing really dried. We all agreed that we would never complain about the heat, sun, or warm weather haha. We have planned to take some time off at the NOC and stay in one of their bunk houses, so we will have to make up miles tomorrow, it will be one of our longer days so far.
