| Topped out on Leggett Hill |
The ascent over Leggett Hill was surprisingly easy, but only because I got an early start.
After a 5 am wakeup, I was pedaling by 7, as were the previously mentioned group of kids who have been riding from Eugene OR and are headed to San Francisco.
The kids are on a tour sponsored by Apogee Adventures, a Brunswick ME company that organizes travel outings for teens. Great bunch. Having the adventure of their lives.
I didn’t have any problems at Standish-Hickey, though groups of campers were using the hiker-biker site to smoke marijuana.
Maybe it was the designated site?
Seems odd that folks would be OK with passing joints during a Covid area.
But maybe they were all already vaccinated?
Sadly, the showers have been turned off in a drought-related effort to conserve water at MacKerricher State Park, where I am staying tonight.
There is still some red-tinged water for drinking.
A park staffer assured me that the park’s water is sanitized and potable but that no park staffers actually drink it.
They drink bottled water, he says.
