Camping near Piscataquis River 2063.3

Well, our superb construction didn't work THAT well... Most of our stuff got wet or damp but at least not soaked. The forecast said that it was supposed to rain the whole day and night but it just started a while after we headed out. But it really rained all day, most of the time just sprinkling, yet too much for our backpack covers.
The rain also influenced our pace today because the roots and rocks were super slippery. Julia fell two times and I slipped several times.
In the morning Julia got lost again. I was a bit ahead of her and she missed a sign. So she went straight uphill while I took a turn to the left. "Luckily" both ways merged and I didn't notice that she was missing. So I kept on going and eventually she showed up ahead of me :D First I was wondering if it's really her, then I thought that she was ahead of me all the time... Good thing that this time the situation resolved without running through the woods ;)
The detour also didn't make any difference time wise but we still didn't make all of the planned 22 miles. Still the 19 miles were more than we need to average for making it to the festival. We sat up our camp right before the river we need to ford tomorrow.Leggi altro
