Day 2 – 15.1 Miles – July 10

I woke up around 8 am, and stopped raining a little, so I had the opportunity to pack my things for the morning.

The two women camping by my side, Pigpen and Annie, were walking together and looked like great people. I talked to them a little and obtained great comfort and advice.

I left around 9:30 am, in a cloud of fog once more. The rain ceased mostly for noon, which was pleasant, and then early in the afternoon the sun was looking out and the clouds were cleaning. I went through the traffic of the path again, and they recognized me for the gnome in my backpack! 🙂 My plan for the day was to address a camp about 4 miles south of the border, leave some of my things and prepare the camp, and then Slackpack to label the border.

When I arrived at that camp around 1 PM, I met Josh and John, two types that I met in the lions den a few days before, which were doing the same. So I walked with them to the border, where we took a break and got some photos! It was quite anti -marked honestly, but a monument and a great record book where I could see who was here before me.

I returned to the camp around 4:30 pm on mile 3.7 and I made some ramen for dinner, which has been quite good, and then cools during the next few hours.

He felt great heading south at this point, even just a few miles, because it is difficult to think about going back (technically) for 30 miles.

My store had been quite wet for the rain the night before, but because I configured it before turning to the border, it dried, which was incredible. I also have to say that this place was incredible. I had a large tent and a great view, and we saw deer throughout the camp at night and in the morning. I even heard them run all night, probably smelling and looking for which crumbs we could have left behind.

I slept very well here, and I was very happy to see some friendly faces and meet new people, so in general a pretty good day.

See you in the next!
