Today was mostly a day for relaxation. The only job I really had to do was to go to the post office and mail Sierra stuff home and resupply to Sierra City.
I got up rather late which was around 0600 after which I spent some time on my phone doing blog posts.
I went to the hotel’s breakfast sometime after 7 and once again really enjoyed it.
After breakfast I relaxed some more in my room while watching a movie. I also prepared the stuff I am sending at the post office. Around 11 I ordered an Uber to the post office.
At the post office I spent some time packaging everything up and filling customs declarations.
The amazing Lake Tahoe
I walked back from the post office while sticking as much as possible to the lakeside. On the way back I had lunch at Artemis near the lake. It was excellent.

Back at the hotel it was time for more relaxation.
For dinner I had takeout pizza and just relaxed more in my room.
My name is Martin Caspersen, I live in the very flat scandinavian country of Denmark. Most of my life I have lived just north of the capital (Copenhagen), I have however lived a short while in Brisbane, Australia.
I have a big love for being outdoors. In my day-to-day life most of my time outdoors is spent running where I generally try and push for distance over speed. When I get a chance what I really like to do is to go hiking. In particular I like hiking in mountainous and generally strenous terrain. Until 2018 my hiking experience waslimited to somewhat shorter trips with the highlights being a 4-day hike in New Zealand and a thru-hike of the GR20 on Corsica.
In 2018 that changed as I thru-hiked the PCT, the Pacific Crest Trail, in the US. I have dreamed about thru-hiking the PCT ever since I first heard about it in 2011. The thru-hike was an amazing experience.
