Sounds like you got lucky on the weather.

What's you're trail name, most through hikers have them.

My brother in law and niece are doing the Continental Divide Trail this year, when completed she will be the youngest ever to complete the triple crown.  :tup:

Their trail names are Balls and Sunshine.
