First swim on trail 🤩
After an other good breakfast, I prepared my stuff this morning to slackpack to the next hostel.
I can feel my shin split from yesterday.
I guess I jogged a little too much for them…
Other from the shin splits that I can feel, my left ankle bone still hurts on every step I take when I wear my shoes.
New shoes are necessary…
About an hour in my hike, I got to Dismal Falls.
A few people where in the water & other where getting ready to jump in.
I decided to jump in myself ! This is part of the AT experience.
The water was frigid, glacier cold 🥶
I needed to take deep breathes before swimming after the jump😂…
After the swim, I headed out back on trail.
Shortly before arriving to Woods Hole Hostel, I took a nice break on Sugar Run Mountain.
At the hostel, I had a great time. Meet some new people & saw people I had not seen for a while. The food, the location, the warmth of the place is incredible.
