Checking the map: not as helpful as one might wish
Things that were not helpful today:
*extra trails existing in physical space but not on the map.
Things that were very helpful today:
*interactive map app that showed us on the trail (::cough:: or not ::cough::) in real time. Definitely wound up on the wrong side of the river at one point and only realized after checking the app.
*a rope — alas, the rope did not indicate the HARDEST part of the trail, simply the only part a rope could help with. Still, it did help!
*scone from breakfast — I ate the scone after we finally made it past the ‘why are there so many extra trails I wanted this to be easy’ part of the hike, and it was delicious.
In conclusion:
*snacks yes, getting lost no
