March 22, Tuesday, Rattlesnake Ledge

Round trip = 6.88 km from car to ledge

Weight: 20# backpack and 20# weight vest.
Elevation gain: 1,160 feet*
Accumulation elevation gain for 2016: 15.094 feet.
Accumulated distance hiked: 127.53km
Food consumed: 1 Pink Lady Apple; 2 mini candy bars (360 calories) one hard boiled egg.
Note: Climb to the top took one hour and 35 minutes. I was hiking with Tammi Hermann. She was not prepared for rain, so I provided the plastic pullover rain coat and it kept her dry. Surprisingly, although we did not hurry, the hike only took 20 minutes longer than yesterday. I did my first yoga class this morning at 24-hour fitness, and while it was strenuous, it did not appear to affect this hike.
