GDMBR day 45 – Tuesday, August 29, 2023

Total miles – 1750.10 Total ascent – 115,612 ft

It was very cold when we woke up at 6:00 this morning but we were able to begin the ride in sunshine which helped.

Not much to report about today. A mostly steady climb and we are camping at 10,000 feet. No signs of a thunderstorm yet but we know it will be cold in the morning.

Sometimes even in the middle of nowhere there’s trash
We are on a historic stage route
Home for the night

As we crawled into our tents for the night we heard a sound that I thought was a coyote but turned out to be an elk bugleing.

    Camping at 10,000 feet! You must be acclimated to the altitude.
