Back to the AT

I'm leaving tomorrow to hike the last bit of PA with a friend (I'm skipping the middle half of PA for now). She'll be with me for a few days and then I'll most likely continue on my own for a while. Not sure how long, I guess I'll find out when I decide to come home again. I'm looking forward to it. It will be fun to be out there with someone that I know. And I can pick up my mail in Delaware Water Gap! The states get pretty small here, so if I stay out for a little while I could get through a few of them (NJ, NY, and CT).

I'm totally slacking, I should have put up some pictures while I was home. Umm, here are a few.

My alcohol stove, titanium pot (.86 liters), and tin foil windscreen.


Dinner= cous cous in a freezer bag, add hot water and stick in a hat to keep warm while it cooks. My spoon is in there too. Yummy! Never thought I'd be eating out of a hat though. This was every night, except the one night I had rice instead of cous cous which was a nice change.


My hammock in the wild. It worked great...I stayed dry while it was pouring rain outside. The clothes that I hung didn't fare so well, woops.


I saw trees and fields while hiking. Here is a pretty good representation of what I saw the whole time. I think I'll be seeing fewer fields now, but just as many trees. Lots of rocks in/on/as the trail too.
