Erika Varis DoggettDay 1 of my Backbone trail shenanigans: Ray Miller to Latigo Canyon. Self-planned route, crewed by husband and partner. Beautiful peaks, but damn that first climb is brutal!
The heat set in after the morning mist burned off, and kicked my butt pretty hard, but I made it through, and every time I stopped and got ice and a snack and a short sit down I felt better to tackle the next section.
With luck, I can keep doing the same thing tomorrow for Day 2.
