Um 7 Uhr war ich da, um meine Sandwiches abzuholen. Der Verk\u00e4ufer hatte eine Stunde Versp\u00e4tung. Nicht das Ende der Welt, aber nicht wie geplant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Die Sandwiches selbst waren gut, wenn auch kleiner als erwartet \u2014 ich hatte sie mir im Laufe des gestrigen Tages irgendwie riesig vorgestellt. Keine Ahnung warum. Am Ende habe ich beide zum Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck gegessen, statt einen f\u00fcrs Mittagessen aufzuheben. Habe mit Leuten geredet, die letzten Eink\u00e4ufe erledigt und bin gegen Mittag losgegangen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die Sonne war draussen. Irgendwo \u00fcber mir ein Adler. Ein guter Start in den Nachmittag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kurz nach dem Loslaufen bin ich einem seltsamen Typen begegnet. Er ist mir auf dem Trail entgegengekommen. Ich habe beim Vorbeigehen Hallo gesagt. Nichts \u2014 nur ein Starren. Als ich zur\u00fcckgeschaut habe, hatte er sich umgedreht und war direkt hinter mir. Ich habe angehalten und gefragt, ob alles in Ordnung sei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abI know what you are. I know what you’re trying to do.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abOk \u2014 wandern?\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Er hat noch etwas gestarrt. Dann ist er umgekehrt und in die andere Richtung gegangen. Manchmal liefert der Trail etwas Unerwartetes \u2014 und nicht auf eine gute Art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sp\u00e4ter bin ich an einen Bach gekommen. Der Trail hat ihn f\u00fcnf Mal gekreuzt. Ich habe angehalten, Wasser gefiltert, getrunken und bin nach etwa zehn Minuten weitergelaufen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gegen 15:30 Uhr habe ich auf die Karte geschaut und bemerkt, dass die n\u00e4chste Wasserstelle 8 Meilen entfernt ist. Ich hatte nur noch wenig Wasser dabei. Keine Wahl \u2014 ich musste da hin. Kein Wasser bedeutete kein richtiges Abendessen und kein gescheites Fr\u00fchst\u00fcck. Ich habe das Tempo erh\u00f6ht und bin genau angekommen, als der Nieselregen begann. Eine Wolke hatte sich \u00fcber die H\u00fcgelkuppen gelegt. Das hat mich stark an Zuhause erinnert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18 Meilen waren es an diesem Tag. Der Ort hiess Mike’s Place \u2014 nach Mike benannt, dem Besitzer, der dort lebt. Ein bekannter Stop auf dem PCT. Wasser vorhanden und \u00dcbernachten auf dem Grundst\u00fcck erlaubt. Einiges liegt auf dem Gel\u00e4nde herum \u2014 der Ort sieht aus, als h\u00e4tte alles sich \u00fcber Jahrzehnte angesammelt. Habe dann mein Zelt aufgestellt. Mittendrin hat der Wind gedreht und ich war nicht mehr im Windschutz des Geb\u00e4udes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mal schauen, wie die Nacht wird.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
