Goodbye Pa. And goodbye rain.
Replaced my Altra Timp Trails after 76 miles. I killed another pair section hiking Pa. Let's hope this new pair gives me at least 300 miles
This is New Jersey
This is also New Jersey.
You guessed it. New Jersey. Seriously not living up to my stereotypes.
Perfect weather, cool breezes, and blue skies.
Oh, and fresh blueberries.
AT life is good in New Jersey.
We had a delightful, dry hike...just what we needed after the rain and rocks of PA. And while there were a few rocks, it was nothing like PA.
In spite of our afternoon departure from Delaware Water Gap, we arrived at the Mohican Trail Center well before dark. After arrival, we checked into our bunks, washed clothes in the sink and enjoyed showers.
A huge improvement over PA. Our feet are still blistered and bruised...but things are getting better. And tomorrows weather looks to be the same.
Sounds like a great day. Sorry about your shoes! I wish people didn't have such bad ideas about NJ, just because the NJ Turnpike is mostly all they see. It's not really all a dive, as you've found out. It can be gorgeous. I was guilty of believing the stereotypes, too, until I took a herp class there :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy New York when you get there. I love New York. As much as I like Maryland I often miss my home state!

Organic Blueberries - at just the right price!
ReplyDeleteThose are some destroyed shoes - it looks like they have been grated like lemons. Are there any suitable lightweight leather hiking shoes? So glad to see sun shining on your faces, blue skies overhead and no rocks below your feet. Press On!
