After being pillow-less for several nights, I crammed my leathers into my sleeping bag stuff sack so I would have a proper place to lay my head. Brilliant! If MacGyver were in my shoes, I am certain he would have done the same.

My heels were howling from the hike yesterday. The trails would be unbearable today, so I resolved to update the site. After finally finding Internet access two hours away in Alpine, I got half of the updates posted before closing time.

Here is a picture of the Rio Grande taken last night.
