map hiking 4:15:00 [2]
Putting out stakes at FCN, collecting streamers of controls that did not end up getting used, doing some trail maintenance, etc. Didn't realize the time and had to cut short the planned route to get back before it started getting dark. I could have stayed out another half hour or so but not much more than that. Need to get an earlier start from now on!
The good news is that my feet feel great and my legs aren't really tired from yesterday. The bad news is the bugs are still bad and I got bit by some little gnatty thing on my ear and under my eye both of which are now puffy and swollen. Yuck. I thought the coolish weather today would make a difference - it did on feeling great out in the woods but not on the bugs. Guess we need a frost before they go away.
