It gets dark just as I approach Wild Horse Canyon Road for the final couple of miles back up to Mid Hills Campground

It's also getting chilly, which feels weird after so much heat recently. I need my sweater, long pants and jacket during the evening, and wear long underwear and sweater to bed!

No flies, no ants, and a quiet evening at the nearly empty campground. I noticed people wearing heavy jackets huddled around a campfire for warmth at one of the few occupied sites.

Supper is Backpacker's Pantry Chicken Vindaloo, yum again and I finish the end of a bag of Vietnamese spicy beef jerky. I don't sleep well tonight due to the sudden cold air.
