Blackrock Gap 13.9 miles
Total mileage 1307.9
It rained some last night but it wasn’t too heavy. The tent was still a little wet this morning. I dried it off as best as I could and packed it up.
My first few views this morning are fog free and it looks like it is going to be a beautiful day. Theses views are to the east and early morning then I get some views to the west with crazy fog in the valley.
These are the morning views to the west.
Then later in the day I get the best views in the whole park and it is very clear.
I recognize those black rocks you walked over. Some amazing views you got! The ones with the fog were really cool.
I can’t believe your total distance. 1000 miles ahead of me! And the terrain you’ve covered already! ⛰⛰⛰⛰⛰⛰⛰⛰

I’m so happy you are happy being South, and that the weather (minus heat) has seemed to have improved. Rock On! (Pun Intended!) You are doing great!
