Day 133, Wednesday, 7/27 – I woke up at 5:15am, and was hiking by 6:00am. I left camp and immediately started hiking Mount Moosilauke. Besides Killington in Virginia, Mount Moosilauke is the only other 4,000ft mountain that I’ve hiked since Virginia. I took my time and got to the top. The summit was absolutely gorgeous.…

Day 132, Tuesday, 7/26 – I woke up at 2:30am, freezing cold. I put on my fleece and puffy jacket, and somehow I was still cold. I think my gear got slightly wet during the rain last night. I must have fallen back asleep, because my alarm clock woke me up at 5:15am. Aqua and…

Day 131, Monday, 7/25 – I woke up at 6:30am, and it was raining. I grabbed my food bag from the tree, and ate a bagel with peanut butter for breakfast in the hammock. The rain made it harder to pack up, so I wasn’t hiking until about 8:00am. Aqua and I headed out of…

Day 130, Sunday, 7/24 – I woke up and headed to the porch for some coffee and breakfast. Yard Sale cooked up eggs, biscuits and gravy. I’m typically not the biggest fan of biscuits and gravy, but Yard Sale is a great cook. There’s a heat wave hitting New Hampshire, so no one was particularly…

Day 129, Saturday, 7/23 – Last night, I laid out some of my items to dry. Well, I woke up this morning to a lot of condensation, so all the gear I laid out was wet. I got out of my hammock without packing anything up, and went straight to the porch for some hot…

Day 128, Friday, 7/22 – I started my hike with an easy, 6 mile, downhill, section of trail. I hiked to a road crossing and stopped at On the Edge Farm, which was only a quarter mile down the road. I caught back up with Aqua and Birthday at the farm. I picked up some…

The Lookout
Day 127, Thursday, 7/21 – I broke camp and hiked a short distance to Gifford Woods State Park. As I entered the park, I met Shams and Bliss who were camping there. They called me over and gave me a sparkling water. I hung out and chatted about my journey for a while. They also…

Day 126, Wednesday, 7/20 – I got an absolutely awful night of sleep last night. It might have been the worst night of sleep on trail yet. The AC was broken in the bunk house, and it was far too hot for me to sleep. I was laying in bed, with my shirt off, in…

Day 125, Tuesday, 7/19 – I woke up at 4:00am, and it was still raining. It had clearly rained pretty hard throughout the night. I felt well rested, so I spent the next 2 hours lounging in the hammock. I find it very relaxing to be in the hammock when the rain is coming down…

Day 124, Monday, 7/18 – I hiked with Genie, Splitzy, Birthday, and 100 Grand today. It started raining in the morning, but not enough to drop the temperature. It just became really humid which made everything feel sticky. It ended up raining light like this all day. We came across a neat rock garden early…
