Thursday, Neo and I hit West Tiger Mountain 3. Hoping to avoid reroute induced missteps like last time, we headed straight up West Tiger 3 trail. And up it felt. I was lagging, Neo was ok but not springy, and I turned around a little over a mile in. It got us out, which was good. And I had a very good nap that afternoon.

Sometimes, the hiking doesn’t work. That’s ok.
