Hello everyone.

Finally, after over 700 miles, I have reached a computer with internet access. Currently, I am taking a day off at a gentleman's home on theshores of Donner Lake (yes, the site of the legendary Donner Party). A wonderful 60 mile hike with my girlfriend, Crystal, who returns to Wisconsin tomorrow. Continuing to hike north, I have left the treacherous and exciting ranges of the Sierra Nevada and I am entering the more docile peaks of northern California. I am both relieved yet somewhat sad to leave the high elevations of the Sierra Nevada. Excerpts from my journal are below to better describe the hundreds of miles of ice and rock that I have traversed since I last communicated with you all.

Best regards, Bill
