Well this sucks. I'm on the Alder Creek Trail but it disappears here. I've given up for now and will resume the search in the morning. Or rather I'll just bushwack with the intent of intersecting it further along. I had to do that earlier when I got off the Whipple Mountain Trail.

I haven't eaten much since lunch yesterday and I paid for it today. I was wiped out. I got my appetite back for dinner though and had a Knorr Beef Flavored Fajita Style Rice. Yum! In the morning I'll do 2 packages of Ramen. That should get me back on track.
