Free Bus SlackPacking
My repair dream ended at 5 in the morning this morning when a partner through a hiker decided to shower. While there is nothing inherently bad that the shower is taken per se, it was the duration of fifty minutes and the constant piracy cough that occurred during the first thirty minutes that was slightly disabled.
I had formed a cunning plan before taking the free Rutland bus (called, ‘The bus’) to achieve my first adventure on the path. Traditionally, a slackpack is performed while staying in a shelter and that the staff moves it up or by the path with a small day package, and then returns to the shelter. This is a great victory for the owners of the shelter, since it guarantees a longer stay.
My plan was a little less conventional. As there was only one bus to the side of Mt Killington, the highest mountain (or the hill if you were born in New Zealand) in Vermont, I had decided to travel on the north side of the mountain only climbing along the path of the Appalaches, and then by a blue fire. This would mean losing the southern side of the mountain (cough … hill), while making a similar distance, and I was happy with that.
Chestnut and I had failed in our pizza destruction mission the night before, so each of us had breakfast before addressing the bus station.
The 715 am bus was scheduled, and twenty minutes later we apologized to the side of the road next to the path of the path. Five minutes later, I was completely soaked with sweat due to the very soft humidity level of 99.9%.
Mt Killington
Regardless of the imminent death due to water drainage of each pore, the forest itself was very beautiful and covered with a light fog (I think the fog also has some water).
The climb was easy, and slowly I made my way to the shelter near the top of the Mount … Colina.
Too soon, or about three and a half hours after starting the walk, I found myself in the shelter. I had a break while waiting for Chestnut, and I talked with a couple of other hikers who found themselves at the same time and place like me.
After a quick lunch of bars and nuts, I went to the path and until the first 4K Muu hill … that I have found on the trip.
I will spend some time in a subsequent publication exposing about my thoughts about the imperial measurement system that persists in the United States and its complexities. For now, let’s say that I am surprised by the interest caused by a 1219.2m hill in this corner of the country.
The views appeared and then were wrapped in the cloud intermittently during the fifteen minutes that I remained at the top. The day I was warming a lot, so I began to make my descent along the blue road.
The temperature continued to increase with both the afternoon and with the continuous reduced elevation while I got into the hill.
I found myself on the road just in time for the 3.22 pm bus and returned to the shelter before 4 pm, after having pocketed the highest peak of the state.
Preach
I found myself sitting in the common room of the shelter that filled my face with the leftover chicken sandwiches of our extravagance of food the previous day.
And finally it seems that I was in a show. One of the leaders of the twelve local tribes came and sat down with some of the hikers and without any preamble released to a diatribe about the evils of the modern world and the way in which many of us chose to live in sin.
I had taken three days, but finally I had good fortune and I could hear the alternative opinions of this community society. The conference was extended for almost three hours, and it was a wonderful vision of the life of a cult member. Interestingly, the preacher even used the word cult to explain its structure and life.
While I remained not incorporated at the end of the speech, I must say that I was impressed by the driver’s elaution, and although the issue itself was something fragmentary, the performance in general was very pleasant to see.
Bed
I kept the bed after the emotion of the afternoon. The next two hours spent them chatting with other hikers, writing some blog posts, chewing a Clif bar (the first time I have had them … well done, they are delicious) and wondering if this morning’s hiker will break the one -hour brand in the shower tomorrow.
