Day 33

Origin: River Rd, Erwin, TN
Destination: Campsite south of Indian Grave Gap
Today's miles: 7.3
Total miles: 349.8

I felt much better this morning and was ready to get back to hiking. We took our time getting ready, though: breakfast biscuits, slowly packing on the lawn of the hostel, checking emails, etc. the plan was to only put in around seven miles so there was no rush. The sieve miles were mostly easy. The first three miles were relatively flat and were full of mountain streams (picture below). There was a small climb before it flattened out again and we arrived at the campsite before we knew it.

It felt good to be back on the trail. Because we took a zero yesterday, we probably won't take one in Damascus next week as planned.

  1. Back at it again! :) Even though you did not walk 15 miles those seven miles walked after not feeling so great is an awesome accomplishment.
    Great picture of Magge too!

  2. Pretty subject matter and the stream's not bad in the background. Glad to see the knee brace & to hear you're both on the mend. Much love
