second big pass to get over

e
each day the goals that i set and accomplished grew in distance, climb and energy required. God enabled me to go further, do more and finish strong on this great walk along the John Muir trail.  Hiking over this height is easier if one is willing to camp the night before on a treeless flat that is 11,200 feet above sea level, and considerably colder than he lower, forested camp sites.  i crossed a small snow field getting to forester pass.
