Left just after 7 p.m., turns out I should have left .5 hrs earlier. Ran up to fire roads, and tripped along to Farmington Canyon. By 7:45, it was pretty dark, which was offset by the beautiful sunset over the lake. Rolled my ankle over on an invisible rock--a few expletives later I was back on my way. Getting to pavement of Farmington Canyon road was a big relief...Stopped at the Chevron to reload the water bottle, and came on home. The last few miles were a real grind. Felt sick all night afterward. |
