Day 73 - Car Trail Walking Into Lander

August 30th
13 Miles
Holiday Lodge Motel

I got an early start to the day and packed up everything eager to hit town. The hiking all day today was on dirt car trails and we were exposed in the hit high desert sun all day. It was good practice for the upcoming Great Divide Basin which is the next stretch which consists of mostly flat dry and open desert/sagebrush land. We meandered up and down creek valleys and made it to the road by oneish where we immediately got picked up by the first truck and rode down into town. We got a room with Panama and Beth after eating some Pizza Hut and then resupplied and went to the bar for some drinks. One half of the bar turned into a dance party with glow sticks and pop music which, being in Wyoming, was a weird sight. Spins and Beth turned in around eleven which is what Panama and I should have done but we stayed at the bar and got sucked into conversations until closing time. Tomorrow morning=potentially rough.
