Take Two

Well, I had intended to be gone all weekend backpacking, but I woke up yesterday morning at 4am with some pleasant explosive diarrhea and dry heaving. I think it had to do with a combination of the strenuous hike, eating berries on the hike, eating a roast beef sandwich bought at an IGA store, only drinking one nalgene of water for the entire day, and all that followed up with two strong gin and tonics.

I could barely move, and slept for 25 of 36 hours between Thursday night and this morning.

Joe and Tom continued on schedule, and I've commissioned a few friends to join me on what is now a day hike on Sunday instead of the planned two-night hike. Barring any other unforeseen obstacles, I'll be back at Spider Meadows around noon tomorrow, but probably won't have enough time to check out Lyman Lakes.
