Left town by myself - met up with The Breeze, Mic and Etienne. Found a hook on the ground - so I pulled out some floss, and with a treking pole - viola - fishing. Breeze found and killed a grass hopper - and Mic tried for bluegill. No luck. Leaving town I weighed my pack -50 lbs!!! Way too much food - just can't get it dialed in. Ran out in the Smokey's - believe snow and elevation had an impact on me. Felt tired - so trying to eat more this time. Carrying a 16 oz Nalgene bottle of Shiraz doesn't help - but goes great with dinner! Going to mail some stuff home at the next town - got to get this pack weight under control - started at 38 lbs - so going up is not the right direction. 15 miler today - but weight caused hips and legs to hurt.
