Boondocking the Nation: 17 Days, 8300mi, 1 Motel

Day 4: Sept 6, 2010

My writing about the morning's ride to Mt. Evans was lost online but I aim to rewrite it and add the photos back in.

The sun sinks lower


Ratfink, our local Valley Tag Cache, joins me for the meal.


Returning to the bike, I make a cup of coffee, enjoy a Fun Size Snickers and smoke my pipe.


A local with his dog in the bed of the truck passes by and asks how I’m doing. Life is good :nod Tonight will be a cold one though sleeping at 8000ft. I have on my layers and knit cap fully expecting this to be one of the coldest nights of my trip. My back is getting cold writing this outside the bag so it’s off to sleep.
