Port Clinton 1217.8

We've had a tough day of hiking today because of the heat, humidity and bugs. It tired us more than usual even though the trail was going pretty easy on us. Except for a steep downhill part directly before heading into Port Clinton. We also saw another turtle on the trail today. It looked super creepy with red eyes. They are scary!! If you don't think so, you should check this video: https://youtu.be/-etGu9Y8blM That's what I always think of when taking a picture :D
We wanted to do laundry in the town but unfortunately there were no opportunities to do so. We stayed at a Pavillon that is a bit off the trail and had a great time there chatting with fellow thru hikers. Later on our even our good friend Jon (trail name "Bassachaun", which is basque for "man of the woods"). On arrival at the pavilion we were greeted bytwo veteran thru hikers (Bag o tricks and Tom) who told us stories about the trail. So overall it was a pretty relaxed afternoon and evening.Read more
