Day 98/July 8

Miles hiked: 10.70 in 7:50

Start: Trail to Otter Pond, mile 2089.9, ME

Finish: Chairback Gap Lean-to, ME

Elevation gain: 2,677'



Now into the hilly portion of the 100-Mile Wilderness. The thre major mountains to climb today were Barren, Fourth and Columbus Mountains, with some lesser ones, too.

While not as high as others, these were not easy ascents and descents since there were a lot of roots and rocks to deal with.



Rare insect-eating plant found in a planked bog.
