Day #7 in the Sierras

Starting to taper. Of course, Lucy's idea of a taper was to run up 13,000' Mount Dana. (Her 2:15 time was actually just 30 minutes off the Fastest Known Time for women … she thinks she could Lowe the FKT on another trip.)

I did an easy hike for an hour, and today I will run up to Gardisky Lake. Still sleeping at 9500'; planning to spend Thursday-Sunday at 7000' in Lee Vining for a shorter drive to the races, and access to showers. Of course, we will escape the below freezing nighttime temperatures. (Speaking of which, here is a morning picture, with my iPhone obviously frosted over.)
