Mile 730.
Friday the 13th, sleeping at death canyon. Hiked 24 miles today. Got into camp where risky and dirty were sitting around a fire. My nickname has become "tough biscuit". We are dirty, risky and tough. Pretty much sums us up. First real day in the sierras! It is mighty magnificent.

Mile 706
Woke up feeling sick :( Hiked 6 miles into Kennedy meadows. Pretty monumental day. Passed mile 700. Entering the south part of the real sierras. Still desert though. Did I mention I have a painful sinus throat cold? It sucks. Makes hiking a real pain. Got to the Kennedy meadows general store where hikers gathered and hung out on the patio, drinking beers, eating burgers, playing cards. Still no cell service. Left around 7 to hike out. Passed the sign that says sequoia national forest. Weee! My cold really drained me so I only made it 2 miles to a bridge over the south fork of the kern river, were I ran into Hatchet, Nostradamus and twinkle toes. Dirty and I camped there and stayed for a Quechua shamanic full moon journey led by an amazing 60 yr old woman named Twinkle Toes.

Mile 697.
Felt loopy and not myself today. Tired and not feeling like hiking. Later in the day my throat felt not good- itchy and scratchy. We met up with the kern river and camped by it.
