This is my last picture taken on the trip. I would've taken more, but I was just too damn tired to take the backpack off. At this point, our legs were starting to get shaky and we found ourselves completely off the trail. We had to downclimb some steep sections in the heather and finally got back to the lake. The only problem was we were completely wiped out, our legs were trashed, and we still had another 7 km and 3800 ft to descend. The final hours of the hike were spent fixated on food (McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Dominoes dominated the food agenda) and drink (beer, Coca-Cola, Lemonade, Iced Tea, and Ice cold water). We had run out of water, and were starving. After 12.5 hours hiking in daylight, and the final hour hiking in the dark, we were cooked and pretty certain we'd enter the initial stages of delirium when we reached the parking lot. Neel gave the car a big hug, and we screamed out of the parking lot to find food and drink.
