Hari 8
Smugglers Notch
17 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
Today was what I expected. Tough climb up Whiteface Mt, then Madonna Mt. Madonna is where the Smugglers Notch ski area is. Part of the trail goes up a ski trail. I got to the Sterling Pond Shelter at around 4pm and I think 8 miles. I found out hikers can stay in the ski lodge down the trail a bit. Good thing because the wind is howling and it will rain hard tonight. Nice in here. Tomorrow I am staying at a B&B in Jeffersonville to wait out the rain before trying to get over Mt Mansfield. That's the tallest one in VT. I need to rest for that one. That first picture is the top of Smugs. Got to try to ski it someday.Baca selengkapnya

Ok... I'm really not a wimp. It was supposed to rain all day, but didn't. It would have been a good hiking day, but I stayed with the plan and came here anyway. I hiked 3.3 miles to Route 108 which goes right through Smugglers Notch. Marsha from the inn picked me up at noon. I settled in, took a shower and threw my smelly clothes into a bag. They took them away and i got them back washed and still warm from the dryer. Later the drove me into town where I had a big fat burger and a couple of beers. I was looking at the Bullet Bourbon on the shelf, but held back. I'm focused, sometimes. I also went to the store to resupply. My pack weight is back up, but not like I started. I had too much stuff. I get breakfast here, then back on the trail by around 9am. Looks like a good day for Mansfield, so far.Baca selengkapnya

Hi Steve. Ken and I had a chance to go through your blog together yesterday. Want to figure out the best time/place to catch you along the trail. Let us know your thoughts. Once Berta is settled and Ken's job is set we are free to go. Can travel over during the week or weekend. Whatever works best. What an incredible experience

Barbara Tennison My kind of accommodations Steve. After seeing all the the pics, I get why you would be doing something like this, it is beautful, but it also reinforces why I like hotels....lol Be safe. Barbara

Mt Mansfield
19 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Sitting on top of Mansfield. Two plus miles uphill hike from Smugglers Notch. Did well because of my rest at the B&B, and breakfast.. eggs sausage and four big pancakes. Dave, the owner, drove me back to Smugs and I started my day just before 9am. The shelter I am headed for is less than 3 hours away, so I'm lingering here to see if the clouds clear.

I haven't figured out how to answer individual questions, so I'm not ignoring it. Antiquated technology. Cell service has been good so far as you can tell.Baca selengkapnya

I got here at about 4pm. Nice enough place. The next challenge is a bump called Camel's Hump, but it is more than a day away. I'm trying to figure out how close I can get to it to be able to climb it in the morning. Weather should be good, so I think I can get a lot of miles done. After Camel's Hump the trail gets easier.Baca selengkapnya

Puffer Shelter

I got up and out early, trying to make it to Banforth Shelter by 5pm. It's 18 miles, but I have an alternative at 16. Easier terrain. Trying to get as close as I can to Camel's Hump, so I can bag that tomorrow. I've been hiking 2.5 hours and I'm taking a break and looking at this.Baca selengkapnya

On the way to Camels Hump
20 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ 🌙 22 °C
I hiked from 7am until 6pm and got close enough to get Camel's Hump done tomorrow. I think i did 16 miles. The first 6 were uphill. I don't know why I am in such a rush to get this done. I think it is because I've been told by northbound hikers it is the last real big challenge in the trail for southbounders There still is Killington, but there are days between big peaks, not one right after another. I just pulled over next to a stream, and hung my hammock, ate something quick, and am ready for some rest. Walked over the new bridge over the Winooski River. Then across a field full of chickens.Baca selengkapnya

Top of the Hump
21 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Finally made it. Wasn't real steep, just long. The downhill is supposed to be harder. Perfect day to be up here. I can see Madison where I came from and Ethan Allen where I will be tomorrow. I'm stopping at the next shelter 1.5 miles away to slow down a bit. Can't tell from the small pictures. I think that is Madison out there.Baca selengkapnya

Mt Ethan Allen
22 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
I'm over the Hump. I stayed at Montclair Shelter about 1.5 miles down the Trail. Place was like a fortress. They had a lot of bear problems last year. Not so now. My day started later as I only have 8 miles to hike to the next shelter. From the shelter I climbed a mile straight up to the top of Ethan Allen, where I sit now looking at this view. I can slow down, because I'm right on schedule and the terrain will mellow out.Baca selengkapnya

Liz McDonough Good for you! i know someone who's son is doing the trail but south to north. He started about 4-5 days ago. He's mid 20's, hiking alone, name is Zack. I've known his father from the gym for several years. Just an FYI if you run into him. Happy trails! Liz

Birch Glen Cabin
22 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
This place is as rustic as it gets. It was built in 1930, and except for the tin roof, looks like nothing has been done to it. I'm on my original plan for today, Although I've been stewing over another idea since this morning. I thought of going into town, Waitsfield, this afternoon. I have to stop there before moving on to get more food. I started to rush to get to Route 17, but came to my sense's. I promised myself I wouldn't rush any more, and I have 7 days to get to my next destination. The Inn at the Long Trail is only 60 miles from here. So here I am, taking it easy. I'll be able to take my time in town tomorrow, and stop at a restaurant for a real huge meal. Hiker appetite has sunk in.Baca selengkapnya

Waitsfield
23 September 2016, Amerika Serikat ⋅ 🌧 12 °C
Rained a lot from 2am until 8 or so. Sounded worse in that cabin because of the metal roof. I was dry and warm, so I didn't care. I packed and left for town at around 8:30. It was only 2.5 miles to Route 17, but slippery. I had nice slow hike in the light rain. Hitchhiked into town, second car. Easy up here in northern VT. Eating a big breakfast now, and will be back on the trail within the next couple of hours. Got enough food to get me to the Inn at the Long Trail, 6 days away? Nick meets me there for 4 days of hiking.Baca selengkapnya
