Four miles from where we all camped lays a bridge that provides great shade. This is where we would stay for a solid seven hour span to avoid the hottest day on trail thus far.
Once 6pm came around we started moving again, climbing high up into the Mojave Desert mountains towards Tehachapi. We hiked late well passed midnight, eventually stopping at a site that had bottled water and cookies that were cached by a trail angel in the days past.
