I walked 45602 steps on the trail today.
I traveled about 20 miles today.
Wonderful, but challenging, day of hiking! My left knee throbbed all day, especially on downhills, so I did a shorter day. On the trail, I met 'Toots' and his sister. Ran into them a couple more times and we're staying at the same shelter along with Wildfire and a Sobo guy. Wildfire is a young lady started in Springer and hoping to reach Katahdin. Toots is also doing the whole trail - his sis is with him for a week or so. It was great to reach camp early, wash a little, and get to visit instead of just crashing in bed. This pic is of me on one of the many Washington monuments around the area - taken the first day. I'll let you know how the knee works out tomorrow.
