Yosemite without a major issue!

I just had one of our retired customers come in the store who had just completed her very first backpacking trip at Yosemite! She hiked for 5 days over the rugged mountains at Yosemite, covering over 35 miles in a pair of Freedom 2000's. She said that there were a couple of times that she did feel a little tired near the end of the day, but the only soreness she had was in her thighs from the uphill and downhill climbs. Not bad for someone who has some serious foot problems! She did get a blister at the end of the 5th day and we have now adjusted her shoe to hopefully prevent that from happening in the future.

She was very excited, and as usual, the Z-CoiL's mad a big hit with the other hikers. For her next trip, she is planning to tackle Half Dome in Yosemite!

Till later,
Caesar...
