2025 Diablo Day 03 - Saturday Morning Junction

Cold and foggy today, but I popped up above it around 1000 ft and then it was clear and bright.

Roadkill Report: coyote on Blackhawk Road.

One guy passed me on SGR who said he was from England and this was his first time on The Mountain. He had heard about the infamous Summit Wall; I told him the real numbers, gave him a little advice, and told him the joke about the "false flat".

At Junction I met JB and a couple of other interesting people. 

  • One guy from New Zealand - we talked about politics, fires and insurance, and socialized skiing.
  • One woman named Samantha - she was easy to talk to, and then later went out for tea with JB at Encina where more conversation was had.


Meep meep.


English guy.
