Slept in a bit, breakfast at 7:30. Saw Radar, he said the route 90 road walk into Silver City is open until 5/5 now. There had been notice the bridge into town would be taken down 4/20, requiring a detour. There is some beautiful new trail that has been built that comes in from the west and goes around the bridge, but there are no maps for it yet. I was on that trail by mistake last year and had to backtrack. I will plan to road walk 90 in.
Hit the trail 9:00. This is the third time I’ve done this section and it seems tougher. Maybe because it was warmer? The first 15 miles can wear you out. I didn’t have as much navigational trouble as last time. I saw most of the signs, but a lot of them are southbound oriented. What made it fun was I could listen to the Pirate game on my iPhone, and they won. HeHo!
After 20 miles I settled in at the co-op windmill for dinner, good water, and bed.
