Goodness gracious, hiking's been fun but hard. We're in Monson, ME. 100 miles of wilderness to come before the Big K...although it's not really 100 miles nor is a true wilderness - it just means we don't have access to resupply for nearly 100 miles.
Hiking has been TOUGH, man. I've been hearing how difficult the first part of Maine is, and whoever told me that certainly wasn't lying. And the White Mountains in New Hampshire weren't a piece of cake, either. I'm exhausted. I'm tired. I'm fatigued. I'm so happy to be out here and Maine is incredible, but I think it's safe to say that I'm sort of ready to be done walking for a bit.
Next time I write I will have probably summitted - as long as a moose doesn't trample me.
Oooooooohhh...we saw a big moose the other day. It had huge antlers. And I mean HUGE. One of the coolest things ever. It was walking super slow and it's antlers were so big they'd hit the trees as it walked past.
Weather's been wondrously beautiful for the past three weeks, at least.
Gosh, I'm tired.
Sooooo close to being done, enjoy :)
