Journey Day 213 | AT Day 36

We hiked around Mount Rogers.

We hiked around Mount Rogers.

4/26/86

Rain awakens. I hike out, Paul soon after me in the rain. Out to a field, where a loud thunder crack strikes nearby. Push through hard rain, up a ridge.

Rain stops, we enjoy the sun, but I realize my pack frame is broken. Push on, meet a day hiker, finally reach Mt. Rogers headquarters. Push on after a break, Cross road, up Brushy, Locust and Glade mountains with Joe. Enjoy view. Down to the shelter. Early stop as mileage mania ends. Tired all over, especially mentally.

Nice leisurely afternoon. Rex shows up late, bummed we all stopped early. He pushes on. In the shelter: Paul, Andy, Joe and me. Eat, write, talk, wash. Mellow updating, talking.
