55 miles Gacona - Mendltna



Saw some awesome and huge glaciers today!  Also, we've been hearing a lot of wolves as the sun starts to set.  again we had mostly uphill climbs today.  but at least it's nice to know that they will eventually have to pay off.  The winds got crazy as the sun began to set.  It was cold, but the real trouble was just the blasting wind.  It was coming from the East so it was sidetracking us.  We stopped at a lodge to get some tea and coffee but decided just to spend the night there since it was pretty cheap.  AND we got to watch monsters inc and toy story 2.  It's nice to be out of the tent for a bit now and then.  Maybell, the lady operating the lodge, talked some serious politics with us.  Whoa, Sarah Palin really gets under some people's skin up here!  She has a huge dog.  I don't remember his name, but i'm going to call him Duke.
