The sun got a little brighter for us today, as we moved up to Plaza de Mulas. One only needed to look up from the trail to realize the unique contrast of the environment we were in. Dusty desert gave way to ice covered peaks, appearing to rocket upwards in an attempt to reach outer space. After a long day on the trail, we were greeted with good food and shade.
Till next time,

Hope y’all are getting plenty of rest and are gently stoking the fire within you for the adventure ahead.
Dad, to six years of recovery and hard work! You are a bad A! Proud of you! We are with you each step of the way!
Rest Easy,
Kelly

So excited to hear about your trip - we are following along hoping for good weather and good companions along the trail. Give us some colors and feelings in your emails so we get the full view from up there in the thin air. Good Luck and be safe. N. and P.

Looks like an amazing adventure so far! Update from Vermont - dad is home and doing well. Cavs beat the Bucks in a very convincing way last night - now #3 in the east! -9 here this morning - hope it’s warmer there. Keep up the great spirits, be safe and have a blast on that big mountain.
