Yesterday, Saturday March 26th was a productive day. I walked over 20 miles and spent half the day talking to an interesting 62 year old guy who spent 30 years working at Heavenly Valley Ski Resort at Lake Tahoe as head of the Ski School and then as VP of Operations. He was forced out when Vail bought it and now works as a high end artist building intricate things from wood.
At about eleven last night I was in my tent when I heard what I presumed was a bear. It was thrashing around and breaking sticks, so I yelled and it went away. At one in the morning I heard about four guys loudly coming up the trail. They apologized for making so much noise when they saw my tent and then explained that they were heading down the hill because they had stupidly (their words) left their food in their tent and a bear had torn its way in and taken their food. I'm glad I hung mine from a tree branch, but I didn't sleep that we'll for the rest of the night.
