Self-Reflection in Hanover – AT Thru-Hike Day 57

October 16, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

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

October 14, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

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

October 11, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

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 […]

Heating up on the Appalachian Trail – AT Thru-Hike Day 54

October 9, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Ore Hill I finally left Hikers Welcome hostel this morning. I started hiking at about 10:30am. Before I left this morning, the three brothers that I had last seen at Rattle River arrived at the hostel. I was surprised to see that they were still out on the trail. The middle brother, I heard, […]

Hikers Welcome Hostel – AT Thru-Hike Day 52,53

October 7, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Hikers Welcome Hostel Glencliffe, NH I spent my zero day socializing and drinking. I finally got my pizza in the morning when the stores opened back up. Dagobah left late this morning with his heart set on a 20 mile day. The dog didn’t look too excited to leave and was shivering in the […]

Lost on the Hurricane Trail – AT Thru-Hike Day 51

September 20, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Hikers Welcome Hostel (Glencliff, NH) Even though I wanted to wake up and get moving early this morning, I left camp around 7:30. Three rock climbers walked past me while I was eating breakfast. They didn’t care that I was camping there and they didn’t see me until there were right on top of […]

Stealth Camping at the Base of Mt. Mousilake – AT Thru-Hike Day 50

September 18, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Mt. Mousilake I was feeling good this morning despite having slept in a wet sleeping bag on a cold night. Dagobah and Smurf left before I did with a couple of the section hikers that stayed at the lean-to. As usual, I was the last to leave the shelter. I crossed the summits of […]

Heavy Rains in the White Mountains – AT Thru-Hike Day 49

September 16, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

I left Garfield campsite late this morning. I needed the rest last night. Before bed, I had a lengthy conversation with an elderly man at the shelter. He had joined his daughter and her husband for a few days in the Whites. When he first arrived at the shelter, I thought that he might be […]

The Appalachian Trail Community – AT Thru-Hike Day 48

September 13, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Garfield Ridge I could have slept forever in that attic. With the amount of food around me, I probably could have lived there at least a year. The small window faced west so the sun hardly lit the small room. The clanging and clanking of pots and pans from beneath the wood floor told […]

Wilderness Rescue of a Woman in the White Mountains – AT Thru-Hike Day 47

September 11, 2013 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Gale Head Hut, White Mountains Well, what a day! I woke up late this morning and I left Ethan Pond around 8:45 am. I covered the first 4.5 miles by 10:30am. I was really moving. The trail was smoothed gravel, remnant of an old railroad bed. I stopped by Zealand Falls Hut for leftover […]
