Week 109 Sept. 30 - Crystal Peak

Total Distance: Approximately 7.6 miles
Elevation Gain: Approximately 3400 ft
Time: 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
Weather: Amazingly awesome!

So I had a weird intestinal bug the Friday before this hike.  I was so sick I barely made through work Friday.  I checked myself into the hospital Saturday.  I was so dehydrated.  The doctor specifically told me not to hike on Sunday.  I did.  I made it to the top of a 6500 ft. peak.  The 2.5 mile stretch from a junction took me two and a half hours.  I napped 3 times on that stretch.  When I hit the summit, I almost threw up.  I then slept for an hour.  The hike down was almost enjoyable.

I will choose how the streak ends.  And I did not choose an intestinal bug.
