Some frustrations mounting…
Got off to an early start in Sihlbrugg. I skipped breakfast, figured with bad weather approaching I’d make some progress early and have plenty of time to catch up on food when the rain arrives.
The hike over to Zugerberg was long, my pack felt heavier than yesterday, and my body aching.
I arrived on Zugerberg launch- our home spot- to an overcast sky. Waiting for some rays of sun to puncture the cloud cover I ate a tasteless breakfast of a Powerbar (allegedly “cookies & cream”) and two nut bars (the salty ones they sell at the gas station, the chocolate getting all over my hands).
The sun came out, I launched, the sun disappeared, I landed.
It was so hot & humid my iPhone refused to work. Annoyed, I took the cable car back up. Back up at launch the horizon was dark from the cold front about to roll in. I launched, wingovered down, and found a hotel to hunker down until sunnier days come.
