Camping Sugar Run Gap 623.7

For our goal we need to make miles so we tried getting up early. But we were both tired because a guy snored the WHOLE night, so it took us until 7:30 to get started. After a few miles we met Mick again and soon afterwards also Cool breeze.
They were shooting for 24 miles today and so did we, so we thought we'd meet up again later. The hike was mostly flat along a river and thick rhododendrons protected us from the sun. So it was a pretty neat hike until the afternoon when we had lunch in the Wapiti Shelter. An older guy named dog breath told us in detail about the murder that took place in this Shelter. So a mentally unstable man just randomly came up the hill and shot two persons directly in the Shelter and then moved their bodies somewhere around... Spooky!!

In the evening we didn't manage to make our miles and ended up about two miles earlier. Right when the tent was set up it started pouring so we had a quick dinner and then went to sleep.Read more
