Location: Sherburne Pass I slept through my work for my work for stay this morning. I was supposed to help Cashen in the café. I took my time getting out of the hostel this Saturday morning. I visited the farmers’ market in town and the local bookstore. I decided not to buy anything. I visited […]
Exploring Deeper the Twelve Tribes Cult – AT Thru-Hike Day 63
Location: Rutland, Vermont It wasn’t hard for me to convince myself to take another zero day with the Twelve Tribes. I am just a little tired of hiking. I am however ready to return to the trail tomorrow. I think I am ready at least. I’ve got an itch to hike tomorrow. I had an […]
Partying Too Hard at Twelve Tribes – AT Thru-Hike Day 62
Location: Rutland, Vermont I woke up on the cold floor this morning. I need to remember that when I am drinking alcohol, I cannot handle as many beers as I could before the trail. I have 25 lbs fewer on my body and I don’t drink as often as I did. I actually wonder if […]
Meet the Twelve Tribes Cult – AT Thru-Hike Day 61
Location: Rutland, Vermont Today marks two months since I began my trip. I am far behind schedule, but I am behind because I am having a great time. Hopefully I am not hurting my chances of finishing because I am moving so slowly. I probably need to push a little harder, but the trail and […]
Time at the Mountain Meadow Lodge – AT Thru-Hike Day 60
Location: Mountain Meadow Lodge Katharine’s birthday. I left the shelter this morning at a decent hour. I forgot to take the mousetrap with me and I didn’t get the chance to thank MJ for the food. Today was rather uneventful. Not much happened. I hiked 15 miles to Mountain Meadow Lodge, where I am sitting […]
Hiking Through Hot Pastures in Vermont – AT Thru-Hike Day 59
Location: Unknown I left the shelter late this morning because I only planned to hike 14 miles. The heat began to drain my energy as soon as I began climbing the hills in Vermont. I walked though a lot of pastureland today. The hills are still challenging, but the miles are pleasant. The heat is […]
Entering Vermont – AT Thru-Hike Day 58
Location: Thistle Hill I woke up early with the sun this morning. I was completely wet from the early morning dew. I only got out of my sleeping back because I couldn’t fall asleep. The grocery store hadn’t opened yet, but I grabbed a couple Gatorades and a pop-tart at the gas station. I sat […]
Self-Reflection in Hanover – AT Thru-Hike Day 57
Location: Hanover, NH Last night I camped in the woods just off the soccer field. The bugs were bad, so I didn’t stay awake late to talk to the obnoxious people while they smoked pot. As it turns out, three were from North Carolina and they were all Duke Basketball fans but not Duke graduates. […]
Bumming Around in Hanover – AT Thru-Hike Day 56
Location: Hanover, NH I left Trapper John’s at a decent hour this morning. I planned to hike into Hanover, NH as quickly as possible and hoped to get a place to stay at one of the fraternities on the Dartmouth campus. I felt well this morning after hiking my longest mile day. I even set […]
AT Miles Coming Easier Now – AT Thru-Hike Day 55
Location: Trapper John Shelter Today I hiked my longest distance in a day. I don’t hike with any sort of map, but by adding together the distances on the signs in the woods, I hiked nearly 19 miles over several mountains, two of which were over 3000ft. I didn’t start early, so I began my […]
