On this date in 1988 I hiked up four trails.  Saddle rock, cold Springs and down San Ysidro I forget what the other one was.  It took me eight hours there was a heat wave.  The trails were in Santa Barbara Mountains.  I was accompanied by Jess Gonzalez.  He got dizzy or so he said and he ceased to sweat.  My vision was blurred.  I drank a canteen of Gatorade and 2 quarts of Gatorade going up.  When we got down there was a little store where I bought another Gatorade.  Going down was harder than going up and especially on my heels.  (I kept a daily journal back then).
