I had planned to do a 24 mile hike to a spring with an established campsite. The hike was easy and tiring at the same time. The trail was nice dirt the whole way. But it was full of pudding. I'd go up 100-200 feet and then back down. All day long. After about 21 miles I reached a nice apple tree ate a couple apples and drank the rest of my water. That was a mistake. The spring I had planned to camp at was dry. That meant I had to hike 3.5 more miles to get to the next water source. By the time I got there it was full dark and I was tired. Luckily there was a section hiker there who gave me a liter. I then had to hike .3 miles down a very steep hill to get water. On the bright side I was at a shelter with a very nice view.
