Disaster!
But Noah! This is your time that you are supposed to be backpacking the Bruce Trail with your friends for 5 days! Why are you posting?
Well, almost immediately after the hike started, my right hip started bothering me. Towards the end of the day, it had gotten rather painful. I woke up this morning with the same problem and while favoring that leg anyway, sprained my right ankle. The combination of the 2 problems was much more than I was willing to hike on the extremely rocky, slippery, and challenging terrain and so when we hit the next town I called for a pickup. The other 3 guys are continuing the hike. The dream will have to wait at least one more year I guess.
I left my camera with them for extra pictures so I don't have any to post at the moment. They will have to come later. The ~30 hours I did spend on the trail were awesome, despite the pain in my right leg, and I look forward to the time where I can actually finish it.
