Thomas Knob Shelter 497.3

We really made some miles today! If we can keep up this pace we're going to be done with the trail by middle of September. In the afternoon the trail led us through a bunch of cows, they seemed friendly.
The Shelter where we're staying is pretty neat. It looks more like a house and is even a bit isolated. But just like any other Shelter there are mice everywhere. They're cute as long as they stay away from your food and gear.
There is a report from a bear that visited the next Shelter last night, broke a branch and ate the contents of a food bag. Afterwards it tried to steal a backpack out of the Shelter but was chased away. I hope our food will still be there tomorrow otherwise we'll have to walk quite a bit to get something to eat...Meer informatie
