Day 35/May 5 -- from one hostel to another

Miles hiked: 20.20 in 8:34

Start: Bears Den Hostel, VA

Finish: Teahorse Hostel, Harpers Ferry, VA

Elevation gain: 3,514'


Another long day, but no where near as tough as the Roller Coaster. After about 4 miles, the trail just followed a very long Ridge line to Harpers Ferry.

This is what thru hikers are reduced to--scribbling in the dirt:



 Highlight of the day was getting to the Shenandoah River and crossing into West Virginia.


Highlight of the evening--a salad with Honey Mustard dressing, a Wild Trail Pale Ale and Garlic Pasta with grilled chicken.

And, no, I could not finish it.


Route from my Suunto.
