My Garmin watch annoying ended yesterday’s activity prematurely, so the last half of yesterday and first half of today are their own separate activity. 

The trail traversing along Mount Elbert was so fun I definitely scared myself a bit, ripping along far faster than I typically allow myself (I’ve come too far at this point to end my trip in a hospital instead of at the southern border). The aspen groves were an absolute delight—strikingly tall in some places, and with turning leaves in others. 

I settled into a lovely campsite overlooking Twin Lakes and made good time into Buena Vista to resupply and get some fresh brake pads. It’s been nice having regular access to civilization for the last 10 days or so. From this point south, civilization touch points are going to become fewer, further between, and smaller, with increasingly remote stretches in between.
