Day 35 - miles 654.6 - 676.1
Today was pretty uneventful. We're not as spry as we once were on the trail. We are growing tired and weary. We don't pop right out of our sleeping bags at 5am like we once did, and our bodies are always so stiff and achy. The terrain became very rocky and rugged today, and new landscapes came into view that could be described in the same way. The hiking was difficult and slow going.
We hiked off the trail to a spring that was "not suitable for drinking", per posted signs. Our water report warned that the water has a high uranium content (for a family for daily consumption). We were in need of water and figured that a little uranium couldn't hurt. We're still alive, with no ill effects!
