We got an ok start today, our campsite was not well sheltered from morning sun which always helps with the wakey wakey time, damnit..

After a maybe a mile we saw our first lake of the Sierra, chicken spring lake.  It was beautiful, and backed by a mountainous wall of rock, definitely a first for us

We didn't see much in the way of wildlife today, except a black tailed deer at our evening camp site.

It was not too much of a struggle today though, gentle ups and downs, and we had an excellent campsite away from other people, and by a sweet creek, the water was so cold... Naturally we stood in it to chill our aching feet bones..

We had a deer visitor, happily munching on soft river side grass and she wasn't overly worried about us setting up camp nearby.  Its getting darker and I'm sleepy, nighty night
