Sequoia National Park
Woke up at 3:30 am and stared for Forester Pass. The sketchiest climb I've ever done. The most insanely beautiful views of kings canyon. I was stunned. I took lots of pictures and we all smoked a joint on top. Down the backside into Kings Canyon were a series of very steep glisades. TONS of hiking through slushy snow fields. Massive peaks above everywhere. There is so much snow. Felt motivated to finish early so I never took a break and passed the group. Ended up hiking with Happy Hour most of the day. We went to the Bullfrog junction but it was snowed in and had no spaces to camp.
don't look down
glissading down cuts hiking time and is also fun

I assumed we should press forward towards Kearsarge Pass and hopefully the lazy fuck crew will catch up. Happy Hour and I decided to just camp on rocks and hit town early. Hopefully I will find my crew in town. I also hope they don't worry about me being MIA from the trail.
I'm so excited to go to town and take a few days off with my loved ones. I haven't had a shower in 10 days and I'm dying to eat real food and have a beer.

every once in a while I get up at night to capture the sky.
