Mile marker 657, Pine Swamp Shelter, to mile marker 724, Lambert Meadows: 67 miles in 5 days. The 3 R's on what to watch out for on our hike? ROOTS, ROCKS and RATTLESNAKES!
Not really a great place to sleep for the night.
Even the trees are using social distancing practices.......with a Detroit Red Wings mask!
A LARGE Kiefer Oak tree!
MacGyver checking out that ridge line in the distance which we will climb later in the day....also assessing the potential storm in the distance!
We originally thought that Virginia was going to be somewhat an "easy walk in the park".....Wrong! This type of path...or kind of a path....was quite common this year.
Audie Murphy Memorial
Came across this moving momument dedicated to the most decorated American soldier of World War II. This was near the place he died in 1971 in a place crash.
700 Mile Marker!

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!
