Backpack, sleeping bag, tent: the old gear I used to use, and the new gear coming along with me this year

Curious about what agencies and jurisdictions the PCT passes through as it heads north from the Mexican border

We headed up to the west side of Joshua Tree yesterday--there's a nice 6 1/2 mile loop hike just out of the west entrance, winding through those odd rockpiles Joshua tree is known for, walking through some sandy washes, and shaking down some new gear for my PCT walk next month.

Went running for the first time in a week. Went well. No plantar fasciosis, yay!
