Appalachian Trail Experience 2006: Just Gene

My AT adventure began on 4/4/06 at Springer Mtn was completed on 8/6/06 at Mt Katahdin. I averaged 18mi/day with an average pack weight of 40lbs. I resupplied every 2 weeks via mail drops and spent lots more money on food along the trail. I took a total of 8 days off spending 6 of them with my wife. I'm looking forward to doing it again...a bit more slowly the next time...:)

7/19/06 Wednesday: Gorham NH Day off

I spent the day relaxing after a grueling trip through the White Mountains. Protozoa and I moved to a nicer motel that had also offered laundry facilities... We got up late and walked to the outfitters shop and generally just checked out the town center... After lunch I went to the public library to get some blogging done and spent most of the afternoon getting caught up. We celebrated Protozoa's completion of his 7year AT Journey with a quiet steak dinner at J's Restaurant next door to the motel. It was a much need relaxing day before I was to tackle some more difficult mountain ranges in Western Maine. The day finished with a pleasant conversation with my wife and other members of my family letting them know I would be entering Maine tomorrow. :)
