July 3-10
Idaho, Washington, Montana
- Had powdered donuts for breakfast and then started on a 12 miled round trip hike on Akokala Trail to Akokala Lake. Stoped after about 4 miles or so and walked back. Mosquitos were unbearable. Went to Polebridge Mercantile and got some insect repellant and ice. Picked up some more firewood on the way back...you are allowed to pick up wood from the ground.
- RAIN RAIN RAIN. Well, only for about 10 minutes.
- Today's Beer of the Day: Same as last night, and the night before.
- Took the short walk to the lake and hung out there on the shore for a bit. Saw 2 rainbows over the lake following a short rainshower.
- It's louder tonight, even though we are still in a remote area of the park - near the Canadian border. Canadians are loud, apparently.
- A buck insisted on appearing, ninja-style, in our camp again - uninvited and unannounced.
- Brad wears slippers outside. Nick wonders why and thinks that is silly.
- Dinner is BBQ chicken, with potatoes cooked with onions in foil over the coals, and a can of vegetarian baked beans.
- mileage 772 total/16 today
