I've seen bears, snakes, and deer in abundance. I've completed more than 420 glorious miles of hiking. From here we ll find a ride into the park, after purchasing our supplies for hiking Mount Katahdin and the 100-mile wilderness. On the 1st or 2nd day in the park we will climb Mount Katahdin, a climb of over 5,000 feet in less than 5-mile distance. However, the weather forecast is threatening for the next few days and, because most of the climb is above the tree line, the Rangers are very strict about not letting people attempt the climb when there is a threat of thunderstorms.
Maine is beautiful.
My feet are still blistered but there has been some healing. I miss you and look forward to being back on August 19. I am now in my tent as darkness has fallen. This place is teeming with wildlife and the evening breezes are picking up. I would satisfy you.
