Clean Shaven MacGyver on our first day.
And then there is me checking my email at the start...or was I checking for a shuttle to the next Hostel :)?
Rough first day of hiking with the first 6 miles uphill......
And then more uphill...all the way to Hot Springs, NC.
Great view from Max Patch Summit
And more views from Max Patch!
I think MacGyver is praying for a nice juicy burger...
....and he found it in Hot Springs!!
My kind of restaurant!
I
Hot Springs, NC
Camped high above the French Broad River. Beautiful views.
Who ever said us Brothers werent close? Camped in a "Unofficial Stealth site" that barely fit one tent let alone 2.
No Bear is going to get this food! MacGyver's food hanging skills was second to none!
Night Skys above Hot Springs, NC
Okay....use your imagination and what do you see.....? And yes, MacGyver and I "mooned" the tree back :)

First Hostel stay (and first shower)...Hemlock Hollow Hostel
This is Diana who owns the Hemlok Hollow Hostel. She is planning on doing a thru hike next year!
The next few days where we stayed were not quite the same as the Hostel...but the views were great!
Taking cover from the rain under a rock ledge,
300 mile marker! 60 miles in.

Hi Possum! MacGyver and I finished up on Sept.7th with 351 miles in this year. False alarm on MacGyver taking ill. He was dehydrated but recovered in about 2 days. Was great to meet you this year!
Hey Pinnacle! Great to meet and hike with you also! And great advice on the next section we did. Thanks!
Great meeting you and your Brother at Eagles nest.
