A Short Hike on the AT #1
Tye River Suspension Bridge to Reid’s Gap
Month: April 2021
Heading Home
I have decided to head home. My midlife crisis was short and cost a lot less money than a new BMW!
Days to Regroup
I am anxious to get back on the trail. I will spend tomorrow sorting and sifting through my bins that were in the slackpack van, figuring out what will go in my backpack and what will stay in the bins until they make their way to Williamsburg. Hopefully I will be back on the trail in a little over 48 hours.

A windy day with great views from Beauty Spot and more wildflowers.
Day 6: Carvers Gap to Iron Mountain Gap
