Day 133 - 11th August - Big branch - Clarendon Shelter - 16.9 miles

A wet tent and wet flor when I wake up. We have some great views today at Little Rock Pond. We stop at White Rock Cliff for lunch. The viewpoint is 0.2 miles off the trail with a steep descent, so have lunch at the turnoff, amongst all the rock stacks built by people. We share a lot of the trail with skidoo tracks - it must be snow covered in winter. We hit a road and detour half a mile off the trail to have dinner at the Whistlestop Cafe, an old railway station. Boss,Powerpak and Deetz join us. Chicken in gravy with mashed potato - pretty yummy.

The last two miles to the campsite are exhilarating rock climbs - quite chak
Llenging to swing out on a hold wearing a full pack
