Bear POlympics
- Today I traveled 20.9 miles with 4331 feet of ascent and 5010 feet of descent.
- It was a shorter day today since we need to resupply at the next wayside so we ended up stopping at the shelter right before it and we’ll hit it in the morning.
- I ran into Average Guy today! I stayed in a shelter with him on my first day of the trail up in Maine! It was crazy to see him and we caught up for a bit.
- There’s 6 other people camping at the shelter tonight with Sweet Potato and I. We introduced a few of them to a challenge Sweet Potato and I have been attempting where we try to hang our food bags on the bear pole by throwing them up to the hooks instead of using the provided pole to lift them to the hooks. There were three of us coming out bags at the pile for a solid ten minutes and then “Bear pole Brian” became the first to complete a hang. Sweet Potato got it next and I never ended up getting my hung…
Peace!
