May 17:McDonalds

It was almost as exciting as going into town; we hiked 9 miles to interstate 15, where we took a right and walked half a mile to, yes, you guessed it, McDonalds. I have probably only eaten @ McDonalds once or twice in the passed few years, and then, only in a pinch. I'm not usually a huge fan, but when you're hiking, it sounds like heaven!

We arrived just before breakfast was over, so we ordered some breakfast food and, later, some double cheeseburgers to go (yay dollar menu!). It tastes just as good a few miles along the trail as it does fresh off the grill (what does that tell you about their food?) :)

It was extremely hot out, and the climb up from I-15 was a grueling 5000 ft. We made it up about 3000 of them before heading to bed on one of the only flat spots along the ridge, as a nearly full moon lit up the night sky.

Total Miles:356.6
Miles Today:23.5
