<p>19 Nov 2008, Hanover, NM
<p>I climbed a mountain today! Emory pass, at 8,228 ft, is the highest point on
this trip. It was about 4000' higher than where I started this AM. It wasn't
particularly steep, but it was just a long time chugging up the hill. I left
just before 9am, & I reached the top of the pass about 3:45pm—only 38
miles later. The downhill was a treat, of course, except that it also had some
uphill sections.
<p>As I ate lunch in Hillsboro, NM, a man came up & we started talking. He
was working to write a book of his (recently deceased) grandmother's life
store. He was a nice guy & had some insight into local history that he
shared.
<p>My host tonight is Pat, who I found through Warm Showers. She keeps a
scrapbook of all the cyclist who've come through, and she can tell stories
about each of them. She also fed me well & set me up with some cookies to
take along on my trip.
<p>Tomorrow is the Gila Cliff Dwellings. Should be pretty cool.
