Today we had smoother terrain. Yeah! We did cross a short scree field, but most of the trail was lovely. Today Glen met another section hiker named Huff 'n Puff. Glen wishes that was his trail name, lol. Huff n' Puff hikes the trail like us - staying in a B&B or hotel. His wife actually shuttles him. Nice!
