Would you believe it? There's a law in California that states you cannot camp under the stars in a tent for more than 14 days in succession.
Yes I've bailed out into a Lodge for the night. I drive a hard bargain and it turned out only twice as much as the campsites in town, so I couldn't turn it down.
I'm in Kernville, a cool rafting town on the River Kern. It's got everything of importance - I'm in the microbrewery as we speak enjoying the Sequoia Ale.
Today was bloody cold. The first climb was sweaty and I was happy to find a lodge at the top to eat pie and dry by the wood fire.
From there it was basically 40+ miles of descending 5000 ft. A few ups here and there, there was a headwind, and it was flippin cold, but I cannot complain.
The beer, food and Californian camping laws are all good.
