Here we are at the Southern terminus on the Mexico Border
As we were hiking down the Laguna Mountains. We could see our next month of hikes as the mountains stacked up in the distance. But now we are dropping into the desert.
.
We started out on a chilly day. Jay had a complete meltdown as we were leaving. He is over that now. We Hiked to a ridge the first night in the rain and cold, Woke up to a misty cold morning. Then we kept climbing for 4 days untill we reached the Mount Laguna Lodge at 6000 ft. That was a couple of days ago. There was water every 1/2 mile or so so we were pretty light those first days. Then we started down. We passed this sign this morning with our distance to canada plus the distance we had come 69.5 miles.
We got water from a concrete fire tank. The next water was hitchin into Julian. Scissors crossing was empty. Jay got a tick today and it was 100 degrees
That's the last mile marker we saw.

ReplyDeleteGuide them south. Keep the Ocean to the right of your front paw. Take a left at the third beach town where you smell American food and head over the mountains. You will find a lot of chicken bones in MX City. I will try to meet you there.

It was great meeting you on the trail today just outside Warner Springs. I hiked back down the trail for a couple of miles to where the trail crosses the highway by the school. Saw lots of horses. Hope to see you again. All The best.
