National
Rangers Association Headquarters, Virginia -
514 miles down and 1,654 miles to go |
 This
freezing rain and snow came in so fast that the wind patterns
were clearly visible in the morning. |
 A
very chilly break with Cain the day before he left the trail. This
was the shelter where I discovered mixing Schnapps and Hot chocolate. |

 I
have a weakness for wooden foot bridges. When done correctly
they only gently augment a beautiful landscape instead of creating
a deep scar across them. At the same time they are almost
useless to a long distance hiker since dipping down and crossing
a stream is not a big deal. At that point they become more
an interactive work of art, and I love them. |
 A
great photo of Jones enjoying a view and waiting for us to catch
up. |
 When
trail crews clear blowdowns, they'll sometimes decorate the remaining
wood. The AT symbol is pretty easy to make with a chainsaw. |
