Green Mountain House Hostel to Little Rock Pond Shelter - 19.7 miles
Damage control day with a twist.
Jeff
wished us well after dropping us off at the trailhead around 8am. I
headed up Bromley Mtn with bandaged feet. I was careful how I walked
today because I didn't want to make the blisters worse, which may have
led to the twist around mile 17. My right lower shin area started to
really really hurt, which has NEVER happened before.
Stopped
at Little Rock Pond tonight and soaked my legs/feet for an hour in the
pond. Beautiful site. Hopefully my leg will be ready to go tomorrow.
Other
than that twist, hiking wasn't bad today. Cool, breezy weather. I went
up and over Bromley Mtn, Styles Peak, Peru Peak, and Baker Peak then
dropped 2,000 ft to the land of the mosquitoes.
Camped
here with a lot of people including two NOBO AT hikers named M &M. I
just met them yesterday but I feel like I've known them forever. A
former caretaker is celebrating his birthday here with a fire and a
ukulele. Amazing to hear sublime's and adele's songs played to one of
those.
Last big mileage day tomorrow. Feet please don't fail me now.
