Day 87, 31 July, mile 1,329 (50% of the trail)

I've made the difficult decision of skipping 84 miles to get up to Burney. This brings my total mileage voluntarily skipped to 117 miles or about 5 days of hiking.

I'm losing my mind in Chester. There isn't even a movie theatre here. I need to move North somehow even if my knee can't bear it. So I'm taking a bus to Redding, then another to Burney.

I should be able to finish before October if my knee holds up. If it doesn't then I'll probably shelve this thru-hike. I'm mainly just a mountaineer. No magical PCT mysticism from this guy.
