April 16, PCT 2018 Day - 4 To past Mount Laguna
(L: my tent setup R: a Jerusalem cricket!)
Our site was so windy the night before and a lite rain and even a few flakes flew. We weren’t too far outside of Laguna and planned to get breakfast. Fueled by the thought of food we rushed to town. On the way we bumped into a friend for the AT!

In town we got breakfast and supplies and took our sweet time charging our devices. We were still biding time for Gargoyle to catch up. We met Orange, Asian Bill and others. After spending most of the day just bumbing around Laguna we headed out to try and find a camp spot. I headed out first and Happs was going to catch up later.
I passed the water fountain which was a completely covered in bees. Literally hundreds of honey bees. I could not find anything even remotely good for camping. A lot of the land was private or belonged to the pay site that we were avoiding. After walking probably 5 extra miles and right around dusk I found a site that was suitable for the two of us and set up. By the time Happs made it I was setup for cowboy camping. I took care of business and watched the sunset. We cooked dinner in our sleeping bags and caught up on he days events.
