Zero Day in Unionville New York – AT Thru-Hike Day 93

February 13, 2014 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Unionville, NY People visited the small park early this morning so we decided to force ourselves out of bed before making too bad of an impression if we had not already after last night. Many motorcycles roared by the park. The exhausts sounded like automatic weapons being fired in closed space. My head throbbed […]

Lost and Wandering into a Unionville Bar at Midnight – AT Thru-Hike Day 92

February 10, 2014 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Unionville, NY We lounged around the church hostel most of the day. The homeless families woke up at 6:00am and completed chores assigned by the church and then left for work or school. We were allowed back in the hostel after 7:30am. I went in first, having been woken up by the morning traffic. […]

Last Day Hike in New York – AT Thru-Hike Day 90

February 5, 2014 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Unknown Shelter I feel all right after a 20 mile day. The day was fairly uneventful. I didn’t go to town for lunch and I didn’t meet anyone new. I spent last night in the shelter with Bonefish, Druid, and Not Bad. Tonight, it’s the same crowd except the rain has stopped falling. I […]

Location: Unnamed Shelter South of Ft. Montgomery I slept until 9:45am. I would have slept later, but we had to check out of the Bear Mountain Bridge Motel by 11:00am. I took a hot shower when I first woke up. I miss daily hot showers. I ate a couple bacon, egg, and cheese bagels at […]

Plays With Bears Struggles with the Thru-Hike Lifestyle – AT Thru-Hike Day 87

January 29, 2014 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Fahnestock State Park Ernest didn’t deposit as much rain as many forecasts predicted, but it delivered on promises of high wind. For most of last night, the wind swirled loudly through the trees. It never blew from one direction for too long before blowing from another. Acorns and branches pelted the tin roof of […]

January 27, 2014 by Mark Kelley Leave a Comment

Location: Unknown Shelter We got a decent start form the shelter this morning as we set out on a twenty mile day. The rain fell hard last night and stopped early this morning. After a quick Pop-Tart breakfast, Bears and I left the shelter. The wind blew hard all day. Acorns and leaves fell all […]
