Day 27 - Manning Park
COLD!!! The night was really cold, -15°C in mountains but inside my sleeping bag it was warm and cozy. I had troubles to go out and start walking. I did a very smart move and I decided to wait until the sun rises and heats the tent so it's not frozen.
After a quick breakfast it was finally warm so I dried my equipment, I prepared to go. Only 17km to Manning Park Ski Resort. Easy? I don't think so!
I was climbing uphill all the time, Hope was at the elevation of 40m, and today the Alisson Pass was at 1350m !!! Difficult days for me...
I had chance to use my Life Straw filter to drink some water from a water falls, really good! But I did a mistake and I didn't take that water with me, I arrived dehydrated to Manning Park. In the store I had to buy a lot of drinks and food, it was really difficult to climb with such a heavy backpack.
I was lucky, there was a motel for only 38$ for a night, my room had a bed and internet, that's all. But that was more than enough! I was happy I could stay there for a night!
