Journey Day 323 | AT Day 146

Early along Pierce Pond, 1986.

8/21/86
Up really early hoping to spot a moose. Settle for a loon diving in Pierce Pond. Others up. We head down to breakfast. More talk and a giant breakfast. Back to camp for a nap. Another nap after I meet Dave from Guilford, Maine, northbound from the Whites.
Write Grama's letter in advance. Enjoy the pond. More talk, down to get water. Say adios to Tim and Fran Harrison. Hike with Dave along the brook, up, down and around to the Kennebec River. Step in shit, no-see-ums attack, quickly into my tent with prospect of the morning ford.
