Sector 38 – Salmon

The rain hammers down on the tent tarp soaking everything not covered. You’ve placed your boots, backpack and wet clothing in the vestibule, careful not to make the inside of your tent wetter than necessary. Your pitch black Skytoucher GMT that sits snugly on your wrist tells you that it’s ten past nine, it’s hands and indices glowing an ice cold blue. You double check the tent fastenings, as the thunder in the distance roars closer. After getting dry and heating some food, you check your watch again, the GMT-hand points to a time 4 hours behind yours, still time to call in your position to home base. Tomorrow at dawn you’ll trek on towards the mountain top. The last thing you do before turning in is placing your watch beside you balanced on it’s sturdy cordura strap with it’s glowing face towards you, making the time visible at a glance should you wake up during the night. Time to get some sleep, it’s a long walk ahead still.
