Birch Run Shelter 1092.5

In the morning we had breakfast and with a ridgerunner who thru hiked the AT last year and had some interesting things to tell us. Like the best viewpoint to look over New York City or the upcoming half gallon challenge. Although it's not really a proper challenge as you still have to pay it even though you finish the half gallon of ice cream. A section hiker gave us some leftovers as he was going back to normal life today. Yummy stuff :)
The rest of the day went by pretty fast. There were some rocky areas but nothing too bad. Currently we can always say that we've already had worse and managed to do it! At a huge picnic area we had our lunch break, there were lots of people but no hiker feed for us :(
At around 6 on the way to the shelter we came by a couple that had rented a cabin next to the AT. And they did trail magic!!! We greatly appreciated getting some freshly grilled hot dogs and an ice cold beer ;)Okumaya devam et
