    So many rocks. What a pain. Hard to believe a hurricane did all that damage. It is so easy to fall. So I went camping and canoeing for a week and here's a little laughter for you with all my miscues: Fell in the water, Dented the roof of my car with the canoe, Fell over the threshold of the tent and got 3 black and blue fingers and pulled my hamstring to name a few so you aren't the only one who falls! And the camping we did was in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan so one night it got down to 37 and I'm glad I brought my Katabatic 15 degree quilt with me along with my sleeping pad. It looked like there was some sketchy trail again at the edge of cliffs. I'm not comfortable with those areas for sure. Yup you had some energy in your steps on the town day. Wow, quite the piano player. I love playing guitar so I have a real love for music. John from MI

    Great job guys. You're making good time. Hitting the landmarks at the same time as the good hikers ahead of you have. Hot days ahead, but also the trail should be clear of snow in the sierra by the time you get there and the lakes will be unfrozen. 😀

      We’re now in Wrightwood with only 2 more weeks of desert. It’s hot, but we’re getting it done.

    Haven't seen a flat trail in a long time. But I'd still be looking for rattlers even though I've seen more of them in the piedmont than when I lived out west. Glad you're having fun.

    Congrats on your 250. Too bad the movie animals aren't there anymore.

    After seeing this video I will now be referring to y’all as The Rock&Roll Express! With the rocks y’all went through, Chica’s tumble or roll and then the way y’all were like an express train headed to town the third day, well the rock&roll express! Happy Hiking

    I’m surprised how wooded the terrain is in spots. Nice siesta opportunities

    • @ChicaandSunsets
      @ChicaandSunsets  6 місяців тому

      There’s always complications to siestas: high winds, bugs, direct sunlight. Ah, but we’re doing it.

    You are welcome. I am hoping to come over from the U.K. soon and hike some of the AT. I hope I get to stay with you at your hostel!!!

    I don’t know how far behind your videos are, but if you haven’t made it through the desert yet, you should really look at doing some night hiking. I think several times you have mentioned the temperature was triple digits. You should avoid hiking when it’s that hot. You can dress warm if its cold, but you can’t do anything for the heat. Also you should probably be carrying more water. Probably an extra 2 liters all the time. Good luck. 😎👍

    • @ChicaandSunsets
      @ChicaandSunsets  6 місяців тому +1

      All good advice and yes we are going to do some night (or rather very early morning) hiking.

    Sorry that you're having such a tough time with the heat! Have you thought about flipping up to the Sierras and finishing the desert in the fall?

    • @ChicaandSunsets
      @ChicaandSunsets  6 місяців тому +1

      … but we’re so “close” to finishing. We really don’t want to skip around if we can help it. Only about 2 weeks left till KMS. Thanks!
