Day 33- Idaho

Today was a tough one. I did not sleep well last night, so when I finally saw that it was light out I just decided to head out of town. It was much earlier than I usually start. I walked out of metaline falls before anything had even opened and began my slog through some very rugged logging roads and trails on my way to Idaho. Just when the scratches on my legs had begun to heal up I got a new batch of scratches. Overall, it could have been worse and I was able to put in enough miles to make it in to Idaho and be done with hiking in Washington after 900 miles. It is a good feeling. The huckleberries all day today were giant and great tasting. When I finally stopped for the night to set up my camp I got bombarded by mosquitoes. So after starting out nice and clean after going through a couple towns I now have cuts and bites but at least I'm finally in Idaho.
