Hello lovelies,
short updates
* I’ll be back in Wyoming in 2 days
* I’m in West Yellowstone
* There’s so many NoBos!!
long updates
There’s not too much to update on. I’ve been cruising some long, big days meandering back and forth between Idaho and Montana. I just got into West Yellowstone, which means Wyoming is near! I’ve been catching up on calories for the past few hours and doing laundry. Yay!
There’s a ton of hikers on trail now. I’ve passed by most of the SoBos, and have started running into a lot of NoBos. They’re mostly lovely people, and it’s been nice catching up with the regular hiker banter. I ran into a hiker in Lima that had just hit the half way point of this REALLY COOL hike; they’re walking the entire border of Idaho (The Idaho Boundary Trail).
Meanwhile, my hiking has been overall pretty good — nice trail, good scenery, lots of topography. In 1.5 days I’ll be going through the northern boundary of the Yellowstone Zone of Death (https://www.theatlantic.com/podcasts/archive/2022/05/yellowstone-zone-of-death-murder-legal/638437/). I’ll send a check-in when I’m there 🙂
Then in a few days I’ll be out of Yellowstone and on the cusp of the Wind River Range. Which means: my footpath is getting close to being complete!
With love and adventure,
Jeff
