Day 5-Summiting At Carson Pass
Miles Completed Today: 68
Total Miles Completed: 293
Miles To Go: 3407
Pat and Sean hit the road at 10:30 AM and resumed the climb to the 8,500 foot summit of the Sierra Nevada, Carson Pass. They reached the pass at 4:30 PM and were rewarded with a twenty five mile descent into Nevada. After a late dinner in Genoa, the first settlement in Nevada, they made a quick jaunt into Carson City, where we are spending the night at the Comstock RV Park. Muscle pain seems to be the norm every day, but no cramps or anything else as they are each carrying about a gallon of water and sports drinks.

This place is gorgeous. Just remember the body does go into autopilot after about a week of this intense cycling. Your muscles will adapt. Be sure to take in the sights along the way. Hang in there.
