Longer post to come next week, but we wanted to share a photo gallery (click through below) from our first day back on the Trail last Wednesday. We ‘slack packed’ (where you leave your bag at your destination and only hike with some food and water for that day) the 11 miles from where we left off at Woody Gap to Neels Gap — and to our friends at Mountain Crossings.
It was a good hike through the Blood Mountain Wilderness, though extremely foggy. This made the day eerily lovely, but we were a little bummed to miss out on the view from Blood Mountain. Hope to make it back one day. Again, longer update later — but we’re well and have finished 53 miles of the AT to date!
Are these iPhone snaps? I’m so impressed!
Surely are — it’s the only camera I can afford to bring weight-wise, but it’s holding it’s own! Thanks, cuz!
Photos are looking great!
Gurl you know how that foggy, dispersed light works magic 🙂
Gorgeous!
Thanks auntie Anne!
kinda feel like it’s extremely appropriate for a place called Blood Mountain to be creepily eerie. bummer about missing the view. looks like something to write home about. yay pictures!
Kind of like it is extremely appropriate for the party to start when Erock walks through the door.
