Description:
It rained all night, but our tent kept us warm and dry. But we are still cold whn we get out of our tent. We start our climb towards Mather Pass, which takes all morning-as our blog says, this pass is really kicking us. But we make it up there by 12:30. Then down we come into the South Fork of the Kings. We decide to go a little ways further to a little lake by the Bench Lake Ranger Station. You can read about this day on our blog.

(As
a note: As of Oct 31st, the blog entries has not been edited, nor
pictures added for Days 15 through 24 of our JMT experience. We hope
to have that done sometime in November--I said it would be done in
August so do not hold your breath.)
