Day 25: Moriah, the carters, and writing down a work for the stay

Awakening a second consecutive day in a spongy bed was dreamy. We sleep until almost 7 in the morning before having to pack and leave. Our breakfast was a couple of those Jimmy Dean sandwiches with sausages, eggs and cheese in crossings. It is not as good as I remember that they are. We wash it with our last cup of delicious coffee, which Henry roasted and elaborated.

We loaded in the Nancy SUV and headed towards the path. When we arrived, Nick gave him $ 20 for his problems. We are quite sure that your kindness for transporting us was not part of your work.

Our first climb was Mount Moriah. This climb took us 750 feet by just over 4,000 feet in approximately six miles. The land was pleasant, I felt mediocre after our day and a half without a trail. It was going to be a long day for this hiker.

Our original plan was to walk 8 miles to Imp Campsite. We arrived at IM at 1 PM and decided to move on. While we were there, we saw the caregiver we met in Old Speck, Ne-Yo. She gave us our passes through Hiker, which give us free soup and two baked products in each cabin we are.

Before leaving IMP, Nick took out the water additive with caffeine that he bought in our most recent replenishment. I put some strong tights in my water bottle and drank most of them. I hoped to get out of this sleepy spell in which he was, and it worked almost immediately.

Finally I was moving at my normal speed after almost 8 miles of slow cheap standing. Our next mission was to conquer the carters. This rank consisted of three prominent peaks of more than 4,000 feet, a large company towards the end of the day.

We met many nobles today, probably about 30 or more. We exchange beta for the next sections and we were on the way. We even found the trio that stayed in the room next to ours, the kite, legs and snowman. Too bad we could not talk to them more yesterday, they were all very friendly.

The first two carters were quite easy. Only some of the regular ups and downs that we have had lately. Carter Dome was a job, but we did it.

Our biggest concern at this time was to discover where we were going to sleep. We have been in an alpine area during the last hours and we did not have enough water to pass until morning. So we had to get off the Carter Dome and Stealth camp, or try their luck in a job to stay in the cabin. It is very unlikely to get a work for stay, especially after 7 pm, when we would arrive, but it never hurts to ask.

The walk was so steep, and my knee was dragging back. I will slow down, so I told Nick to move forward and asked the cabin. Luckily, they did not have any other hiker to take their two workplaces by stay, so we were inside.

We exchanged about thirty minutes of work for the leftovers that served and a place on the floor of the dining room to sleep at night. The dinner was thrown in pork, rice, corn sauce, vegetables and some cookies. Perfection. The caregivers were super entertaining and talked to us until they went out, after 10 pm.

At first I was not sure about work for stay configuration. People pay more than $ 100 per night to remain in these rustic bunk beds in the white mountains. I didn’t want to resume after rich people who wanted an experience of journey. But it turns out that this treatment that we can write down is worth sweeping floors and cleaning tables. I just hope we have a good coffee tomorrow.
