Took the family camping up Franklin Basin area. We ended up just below Logan River Aid on the Bear Course. Did some exploring, brat cooking over the fire, smores, then ducked into the tent trailer just in time for a brief rain squall. Woke up Saturday and I headed down the road to Franklin Basin Aid then ran the Bear course backwards to Tony Grove. I was just about to hit white pine lake when I saw Mike out running to join me. We half-heartedly planned on running as he was camping at White Pine. If I had run 5 mins faster we would have missed each other. As it was though, he joined me for 12 miles or so as we went over to Tony Grove and down white pine trail (before he headed back to camp). My family was there at Tony Grove ready to go hiking and playing at the lake while I was out running. They were kind enough to replenish some supplies before mike and I took off. I ended up running short of water since the water jug tipped over and emptied on the drive to Tony Grove. Other than being thirsty, a great (SLOW) run on very tired legs. I really should rest one of these days... T-4:05 (10:13) 4000' vert ** Weekly summary - 66 miles in 4 days. 13,800' vert. Sure wore me out, but awesome!
