Solo 2017 Day 1 Photo Summary

Getting started before the sun crests a nearby butte. 

Where are all my trees at? 

Sometimes the Idaho Centennial Trail signs were a bit hidden. 

Here the trail skirts the Jarbridge Bruneau Wilderness area. 

I swear the wind blowing in my face had been chilled on those snowy slopes. 

Sure, there's water out here. It's just all muddy and in wheel ruts and often cow pies. 

Teeny tiny desert flowers. 

Definitely an odd feeling to walk up to construction equipment in the middle of nowhere with no one around. 

They watched me carefully while I sat to eat lunch. 

Theoretically, there was once water down there. 

They were surprised to see me. 

Done for the day after about 25 miles. I was in shock that I'd covered so much ground.
