It’s 6:00am and our team has been gone for about an hour and a half. Â They arrived here at TA10 about…I don’t know…11:30pm or so, I think. Â The 80 mile bike ride was grueling. Â John popped two tires, Mary had to lead the 3 guys down the gravel hills at night while they were pretty much sleep biking, and they felt they were on the road that would never end. Â Needless to say they are using all kinds of butt ointment - you can imagine the comments. Â They are happy to be trekking again. Â They ate their pizza, quickly changed into comfy clothes, had a few laughs and stories to tell, then off to bed. Â I got up at 2:30am made french toast and bacon and gently woke the team. Â They all wake up pretty well, except Bobby sits bolt upright so quickly it scares me to death. Â Now I’m waiting for the sun to rise over the Bridger Mountains - but on only one and a half hours sleep, I’m falling asleep as I sit here….more late.

Great to hear the team is doing so well after so many days, sounds like Jason could use a beer or 2 for his effort. Keep going strong, your almost there!

Hey Dad! (Jason)
I miss you so much. Mom is so lame- she never takes me on adventures and she
doesn’t give me my personal space. You better come home soon and take me swimming or something. I think about you all the time and cannot wait for your return.
Go team twenty-nine!
One of your biggest fans,
Bear Snell
