600 to 700 miles in

As some of you know I have been off the trail for a few days to spend time with my family for my grandmothers 90th birthday party. Although it was great to see family and friends I’m now officially back on the AT and eager to get the next 1,500 miles done.

Below are some pictures of my journey from 600-700 miles on the trail.  Here are some recent gear changes that I have had:

1. My second pair of Salomon trail shoes, which I definitively should have done sooner because my feet were starting to hurt and the shoes were rapidly falling apart.

2. A new pair of REI hiking poles (because the tip of one of mine broke a week back).

3. An air sleeping pad in place of my foam mat (for more comfort in shelters).

 

Two months down, three to go.
