I was proud of the second break since my feet were just starting to complain so I stopped to rest them instead of powering through it like I may normally do. I am very sensitive to the length of this trip, and I can\u2019t abuse my body as much as I can do on the shorter trips. I\u2019m in it for the long haul.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c4b683 elementor-widget elementor-widget-penci-image-gallery\" data-id=\"7c4b683\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"penci-image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t        <div data-sliderid=\"36290\" id=\"penci-image_gallery_36290\"\n             class=\"penci-block-vc penci-image-gallery penci-image-gallery-s1 pencisc-grid-2 pencisc-grid-tablet-2 pencisc-grid-mobile-1\">\n\t\t\t            <div class=\"penci-block_content  pencisc-grid\">\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"penci-gallery-item penci-galitem-1\">\n                    <a  data-bgset=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_205212-768x512.webp\" class=\"penci-lazy penci-gallery-ite penci-image-holder penci-image-landscape\"\n                       href=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_205212-1170x780.webp\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                                                <i class=\"penciicon-expand\"><\/i>\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"penci-gallery-item penci-galitem-2\">\n                    <a  data-bgset=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_221432-768x512.webp\" class=\"penci-lazy penci-gallery-ite penci-image-holder penci-image-landscape\"\n                       href=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_221432-1170x780.webp\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                                                <i class=\"penciicon-expand\"><\/i>\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"penci-gallery-item penci-galitem-3\">\n                    <a  data-bgset=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_221902-768x512.webp\" class=\"penci-lazy penci-gallery-ite penci-image-holder penci-image-landscape\"\n                       href=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_221902-1170x780.webp\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                                                <i class=\"penciicon-expand\"><\/i>\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"penci-gallery-item penci-galitem-4\">\n                    <a  data-bgset=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_230752-768x512.webp\" class=\"penci-lazy penci-gallery-ite penci-image-holder penci-image-landscape\"\n                       href=\"https:\/\/yetihikes.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/PCT_20240328_230752-1170x780.webp\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                                                <i class=\"penciicon-expand\"><\/i>\n                    <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"penci-section penci-disSticky penci-structure-10 elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c4c644e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c4c644e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"penci-ercol-100 penci-ercol-order-1 penci-sticky-ct    elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-85f8900\" data-id=\"85f8900\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ec7ac9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0ec7ac9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>I only passed a few hikers today, and I seem to have caught the tail end of the people who started the day prior.

I grabbed lunch there and had the delicious beef bourguignon and a side of french fries. Not the normal hiker fare, but that is a dish you don\u2019t see too often and I couldn\u2019t pass it up.
