Part 7:
Campsites Along the WCT
Night
#2: Tsusiat Falls
Slightly more challenging, the WCT introduced tree roots. Wet, muddy
gizzard like tree roots that plagued all ascents and descents on Day-2.
And... this was only the beginning. There were miles of roots to step
on as each day passed. Six miles of hiking ended with a campsite at beautiful,
Tsusiat Falls.

DeBoot
is back at the stove after a
1-year sabbatical! Little by little, the
Boys secretly confess that in his absence on last year's
trip to Colorado, they made numerous improvised changes to his meticulous
cooking instructions- most often rendering his meals... disappointing.
