>>2382526Well my hike is over with 9 miles to go unfortunately (though I did technically meet the requirements of the pilgramage). I busted the cartilage off my kneecap a few years ago and had to have surgery and it started hurting about halfway through the hike today and feeling loose. It sucks but I'd rather not risk it since there's no place to bail out on the next section and it's the roughest. Still managed to do a little over 40 miles, so I'm proud of that and had an amazing trip. Whenever I get all my photos together I'll make a thread.
