We hit both the 600 and 700 mile markers on the way to Kennedy Meadows. The miles are starting to fly by and my daily average has increased to around 25 miles a day. I also hit my first 30 mile day going into town. Feeling great!
Kennedy Meadows town is a major milestone for the PCT thru-hiker. It marks the doorstep to the Sierras and is just over a quarter of the way into the entire trail.
The trail angel named Tom who lives in Kennedy Meadows and puts hikers up for however long they like to stay is not given enough credit! His place was my favorite stop yet and I heard almost nothing about it before arriving.
I only meant to spend one full day at Kennedy Meadows and ended up spending three. The last day a hiker named Sea King came in and celebrated his birthday by buying everyone beer. Like 300 dollars in beer.
