Vortexed at Walker

Thursday, May 29
Mile 650, Walker Pass


Magic! Glorious, delicious magic! I was greeted at Walker Pass after a 13-mile morning with applause, a cold drink, and all the people I've been tailing for the past few days. These stops always feel like a family reunion, and everyone has stories to share.

The famous Yogi of Yogi's Guidebook was there, along with Jackalope and her son Bearbait, who greeted our arrival with a cold soda and Mardi gras beads. Laugh Track and I showered in an awkward squat in a roadside spring, which was heavenly. Total relaxation after a tough, dry stretch. Maybe we'll stay awhile..

ETA: we stayed the night and had Yogi's chocolate chip banana pancakes for breakfast. Holy yum.
