So nice to see this sign, after a long climb. One more state in the rear view mirror.
Three section hikers I met at the VA/TN stateline, all from Massachusetts originally. They were doing some section hikes, slack packing, on the AT, but their big to-do would be the Tennessee vs Virginia Tech football game on the weekend at Bristol Motor Speeway, with seating for 150,000!
Yup, I carried that in for lunch and dinner.
I doubt anyone uses this old shelter anymore.
And this might be why--all the trash that idiots leave in the fire pit. A great way to attract bears.
On the other hand, this tent site was perfectly clean and no bears came to visit.
