ROUVY - 20 minute cool-down

Woke up early but it was still raining so rolled on other side and started quite late. Finally finished the north loop and thought it was slippery not knowing what is ahead. Made big shopping at Spar and bit of picnic at pavement in front of it.
Then we got to hard part. Clay on tires to extend that tires didn't want to spin and blocked even downhill. Just find yourself a good pokey stick and keep it at hand as stopping every 5 - 10 meters to clean up mud and leafs/needles build-up.
It was slow progress and didn't improved much during the day.
Add first flat tire of many. Akacia thorn from previous section punctured tube later on tarmac. With tubeless nothing you will notice. Have been fighting with patching hole as tube was greasy from sealant. After second patch didn't hold I gave up and put in fresh tube which I have thankfully grabbed just before leaving home. In front tire found big thorn or maybe it is small branch. Not sure. It is not leaking and don't fix it if not broken. It is actually still in tire and I should to check that in preparation for Bohemian divide. 
Storm was expected early into night and radar showed it comming. Hoped to reach  CHH to say, but it was obvious not to happen before storm. Lake in Bank would be nice, but wasn't sure I can make it eather. Decided to make camp on viewing tower. Hamac and tarp at first floor. With amount of fallen branches and trees from previous night it felt safer than in woods.
