Wow! What a day! It was such a good move to stay in Carmel last night and get an early start towards Big Sur. Blue skies, warm sunshine, cool ocean breezes. And if you have ever been to Big Sur, you know how stunning the views are. I think we stopped at almost every vista point along the Big Sur coast. We broke for lunch at Nepenthe in Big Sur and had burgers and a giant basket of fries while we took in the views of the Pacific coast.
We camped at Kirk Creek campground (US Forest Service). The hiker/biker sites were right next to the ocean and one of the most beautiful sites we have camped at. Just gorgeous. No showers, so we "guerrilla showered" at our site. Dinner was a concoction of rice, red beans, and spam. Big Sur cookie bar. Mileage today was 55 miles and a very tough day of climbing.
