“Only Those Who Will Risk Going Too Far Can Possibly Find Out How Far They Can Go”
-T.S. Eliot
Mile marker 843 to miles marker 900: 57 miles in 4 days. Was a good 4 days of hiking with only a few spots of rain. A few tough climbs and descents with a record 5 falls in one day! No major injuries (except my ego!). Criss-crossed the Blue Ridge Parkway and entered the Shenandoah's which was some great hiking!
Amazing trail maintenance.
Not much more we can add to this profound statement.
An abandoned extraterrestrial outpost?
Great view from the summit of Blackrock!
It’s always good to have Toilet-“Tree’s” when you need them :)
Last night on the trail at Loft Mtn. campground in the Shenandoah National Park. What a luxury to have a picnic table AND a bear box on site......but I still prefer wilderness camping.
One of our many records this year...we reached the 900 mile marker!!!

Hi Survivor,
Are you still on trail? How's McGuiver? Did he have a dance with Rona? Hope you are both doing well.

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!
