Rocky Mountain Shelters to US30 / Caledonia State Park

Feb 19th
Today's Miles: 3.5 Miles
Total Miles on this hike: 18.5



Today was a short day. After retreiving our food from the big blue toolbox (installed as a bear box to protect our food), we hiked back to the car. It was a downhill hike, and the whole group was feeling much better after a night of rest. 

We were also hurrying so we could get breakfast before church.

    Timbers Restaurant. A short walk west from the AT, and even shorter for us since we drove.  My breakfast was delightful, and the bacon was as good as any i have ever eaten.
    We visited a Reformed Baptist church in  Chambersburg, and after a great worship service, we drove back to Penmar to get the other car. The weather couldnt have been better for a February hike, and all said and done, Eve hiked 18.5 miles for her first overnight backpacking trip. 
    It was great to have our friends join us on the trail, and i hope we'll get out for another hike soon.
