Two days ago we crossed the 2,000 mile mark on Thunderhead Mountain. To celebrate we wrote the number 2,000 and word mile across our knuckles, not knowing how else to deal with this achievement. As I recall, banshee yells were yelped, as well. That eve we continued the celebration when Lorax (pictured below), created a delectable, non-baked rendition of backcountry cheese cake; yum!
Today as I sit atop Cheoah Bald at around 5,000 feet, staring at the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, 145.2 miles remain; and, less than that by the time we reach our shelter this eve.
So much to be thankful for! Though this experience will end soon, the mental and spiritual carriage will ride on; 'naaay' to that! :)
Sending positive thoughts and beautiful views from along the journey.
Great days to you all!
Alan
