My Daily Routine

A bonus post! Some of you might be wondering what I do each day. Here's a breakdown. And no, all those meals aren't a joke and we really do go to bed at or before sunset. 

6:00 - begin to wake up and mentally prepare to extract myself from my sleeping bag

6:45 - get out of bed, put on dirty hiking clothes from the day before

7:00 - use privy, start taking down my tent and packing my bag, take down bear bag 

7:30 - eat breakfast, finish packing 

8:00 - hit the trail

10:30 - stop at a shelter or trailside for second breakfast

12:30 - first lunch 

3:00 - arrive at camp, pitch tent or grab a spot in the shelter, change into sleeping clothes and Crocs, refill water, eat second lunch

4:30 - cook first dinner 

6:00 - eat second dinner (normally not something that requires cooking), brush teeth, hang food and toiletries on bear cable 

7:30 - night night!
