PCT Day 6 (4/5/22) Julian to Montezuma Valley

 "Sent it this morning! Chilled hard at a spring with a sweet crew." 4/5/22 7:37 PM

I remember this being the first day that my body felt excited to cover some ground. We passed the 100 mile marker after midday. Afterwards, there was a long, dry descent that ended in a small wooded area with a comfortable campsite and a plentiful spring. We were able to wash clothes and bathe. There was a small grocery store a couple miles down the road with a shuttle that we made a trip to in the afternoon to top off our resupply from Julian. The oasis attracted a large group of hikers that night. Looks like we also came to a well-stocked water cache and saw a couple of snakes too.

What appears to be a couple of gopher snakes, a water cache with a shady spot, and 100 miles from Mexico:
