It's Saturday, July 17th. Dave's SPOT did not come through yet, but figuring it was late, I went on to www.teamfarsight.org and saw their SPOT under the tracking tab which came in around 6:30.
The guys are camping on PCT mile 1007 at a creek in Kennedy Canyon, elevation 9086. They hiked 19 miles today. We saw Kennedy Meadows weeks ago at the base of the Sierra Nevada's. This is Northern Kennedy Meadows. They have passed the Mono lake area. Tomorrow, they have 11 miles to get to the next resupply location, the Kennedy Meadows Store and Pack Station.
This should be Dave's last night sleeping on a sleeping pad with a hole in it. The new one will have to suffice as a birthday present until I see him next weekend. Yes, tomorrow is Dave's 51st birthday! Happy Birthday Dave!!
Although Dave is getting resupplied at Kennedy Meadows, Zero is getting resupplied at Bridgeport. They may have one or two days resupplying. Hopefully they'll get a chance to shower and do laundry. That would be another birthday present for Dave. Being clean is such a treat. At this point it's the little things that mean so much to Dave.
