14 miles of hiking • 5250' elevation gain •
Got to the Yeon State Park TH around 9 am.
Hiked up a mile and half and realized I left my cell phone plugged into the car charger in plain site so I had to hoof it back down and get it out.
Guess I was trying to do a epic hill repeat hike! Glad it was only about 1200' of gain to redo.
Just did a normal hiker hike today and kept the gain under 10k'.
Was getting wet up there too, the dewy cloud drip broke up around the 2800' level.
Did a little bush whacking too in the general area. :)
Knee - did nothing for it, no Aleve, creme or Pain RX and seemed ok, just a tad tingey towards the very end. Iced at home

Sometimes just have to keep the gain under 15k' man! :) Can't always be a triple Defiance or a Quad Dog, heh. You went for the SSEEKK?
Failed to even start SSEEKK :) My son was coming back today from Mn & I promised to get some stuff done around the house before he came home, so, I decided to keep my promse & finish the project. I did not even hit the trails until almost 4pm :(

That's kind of cool, it means that we can possibly still get a group of like minded lunatics for SSEEKK before the snows start. :)
