Mile marker: 556 Miles today: 21.5
Quarter of the trail done!! And first 20+ mile day with my full pack on!
When I got to the trail head, a few people where there. We talked about our day ahead.
In my mind, I was targeting to get to the next hostel on trail, so a 20+ mile day….starting after 9AM.
Perhaps a little late to start such a big day🤷♀️…
Just a few moments after starting, I felt the wind pick-up & a little rain started…nothing big & it did not last.
I got lucky 😄
Got some trail magic today. It was in an old school!
Around 4PM, I passed the quarter way mile marker!!! 550 miles hiked so far! Wow
Seeing that sign was something. I felt proud, even if there was so much more left to do. I felt excited & grateful as well.
Then, I pushed on.
I finished my day around 6:30 PM. Much more sonner than expected (around 8PM).
How was I happy to be done sooner!
For the first time, I decided to eat before having a shower…I was just so hungry.
The Quarter Way Inn is a great hostel. I strongly recommend !!!
