Day 142 - Gorham to Gentian Pond

Up at 8:15. Took a shower, just because I could. Called home and gave Dad the shelter run-down.

Got a hitch back to the trailhead and started walking around 11:30. Very hot with the sun out. Some steep climbs, which I was sort of expecting and sort of not. But we took it nice and slow.

Last five miles weren’t bad at all. At the shelter with Swag, Bad Moon, Frankenstein, Cy, Babbalouie and Shiloh. We hit Maine tomorrow! The profile map for the miles ahead is pretty intimidating, but I know we can handle 12 miles a day. Is Dave going to start dragging his heels, though?
