Day 48/May 19

Miles hiked: 24.20 in 8:41

Start: Eckville Shelter, PA

Finish: George W. Outerbridge Shelter, PA

Elevation gain: 2,733'


A big climb early in the day up to Dan's Pulpit where we were rewarded with this view to the northwest.


After reaching the George W. Outerbridge shelter, someone said that we only a quater-mile from a road that led to Palmerton. And that led to my hiking companion of the day suggesting that we could go into town for dinner. Well the steep descent was actually a half mile, but Newton, my buddy, managed to hail an Uber driver. The evening meal was not great, but my soft serve was perfect.

Route from my Suunto, a bit off since my watch was stopped accidentally while climbing some rocks.
