Helmet Falls to Field (Yo Ho National Park) – 17.1
We are back into the wild. I feel my best here. My body relaxes, I breath better, and love the anticipation of what is around the next bend. It is why I am here.
Everything just fell into place today.
- Cruised 17 miles through easier terrain, well except for some nasty logs over the trail to make it to Field to pick up resupply
-
Got a great hitch to Field by a girl that knows Keith and Leslie in Banff! Seriously, it is true.
-
Picked up resupply we sent to Fireweed Hostel in Field. Ate and drank a glass of wine before hitching to Golden
-
Another amazing hitch in a motor home with a beautiful family from the Netherlands 45 minutes to Golden.

Groceries and shower zzzzzzzzzzzzzz at the Rondo Motel
Niiiiiiiiiiccccccccccccccceeee.
Loved the photos of Otter Tail Creek. Loving the other views of the mountains and trees. Bear scat looks fresh so be watchful.
It’s a small world in the hiker community. What and experience. Glad your day went so well. I’d be hating all the falldowns and bushwacking but that’s just me. GoRockin’Go!
Wow – such beauty. Looks like pretty fresh bear scat – hope you don’t encounter one!!! Love your pictures.
