Days 75 - 78 (July 6 - 9): Miles 1018 - 1093

So we arrived at Sonora pass on Thursday and Rian's parents took us down to Kennedy Meadows resort where we showered and did our laundry. We shared a dorm style room with Mad Dog and Smiles (this should actually be part of the previous post)

The Friday through to Monday was another tough few days to get to South Lake Tahoe. I guess the Sierras were catching up with us. This section wasn't as tough as the one to Senora pass and the mozzies were not as bad but the last few weeks were taking it's toll on our bodies I guess.

We reached Echo summit on Monday and after 10 mins of hitching a cool young guy from Tahoe, who was dropping off a south bound hiker, took us in to Tahoe Valley. We got another ride to the village from a dude who section hiked last year. There we hit one of the motels for some R & R. Brian was in the motel next door so he came over and we had beer, pizza, burgers and ice cream!
