10.4 miles
9:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The lookout at Newfound Gap. |
It was a very pleasant walk today through old trees. The uphills were not too steep or long. Much
of the time we were walking along the ridge line with beautiful views.
Our shuttle with A Walk in the Woods. |
Sign at the beginning of the trail going north from Newfound Gap. |
Fortunately we did
have prior warning that tonight was going to be unusually cold, in the 30s, so
we brought our heavier sleeping bags.
They make our load heavier to carry, but they were needed. Before the evening was over, the shelter was
full, it held 14 people.
