Week 4 -- French Meadows Reservoir & Nevada State Border

Okay, team. I’ve slacked again. This time it’s because I’ve been sick all week. But here’s where we were as of last Friday.
First, steps: We walked 326,386 steps, which is down from last time, but still good. That equals 130 miles.

Our top walkers are: Mom with 57,856 steps, Cassidy with 57,655 steps, and James with 45,710. (Honorable mentions go to Hillari and John, nearly tied around 40,000 steps)

Where are we now?

Last week we were five miles past Forest Hill, CA.

This time we walked 22 miles to French Meadows Reservoir, California. This is near the Tahoe area. A description: “This is a remote, forested basin that is peaceful and lovely because of it's location. However, the reservoir is usually drawn down to low water levels by late summer.”

We then walked 22 more miles to Highway 89, the Nevada State Line!!! Woo Hoo!

Then we walked 86 more miles and NEARLY got to Virginia City, Nevada…13 miles to go until we get there. So we’ll definitely be there next week. And then after that is Middlegate, NV and Ione, NV. (I’m a native, and I have no idea where those cities are…but I'll soon find out!)

To sum up:
Steps walked this week: 326,386
Miles walked this week: 130
Total miles walked: 421
Where we are: 86 miles past the NV State Line, 13 miles until Virginia City, NV
Where we’re going: Virginia City, NV, then Middlegate, NV and Ione, NV
