Day 40 - Jackson!

July 28
6 or 9ish Miles
Jackson Hot Springs

Woke up not to early hoping for some campers to head out towards Jackson. Started to walk the road away from the campground and for a couple miles it was nice forested hiking around the drainage of the lake. Then the trees parted and the sagebrush started, open pasture and hot dirt roads in the dry sun. We kept walking and a few cars past by stopped and let us know they were full but would otherwise give us a ride which is very contentious. Finally after six or nine miles we got a ride the rest of the way in the back of a pickup, our first of the trip so far! Got into Jackson, got a room with a fireplace, got a beer, and dipped into the hot spring pool.
