Day 38: pushing on
Today was similar to yesterday – started out bleak (but no rain or snow) and cleared up to become warmer with more sun. All In all we did 22 miles, which seemed more tiring than usual for some reason.
The trail was quite pretty with pine forests, streams and twittering birds.
Today’s mile-cone: we passed the 600 mile mark.
Wonder where you were to send these last two blog posts? We try to follow the map each stop.
Lovely chipmunk picture. Wonder if the Tasmanian grandparents have caught up with you yet?
Do chipmunks build 600m markers or eat them? Cute little guys either way 😉
Your 600 mile cone achievement is as impressive as the majesty of the trail. It’s testament to your planning, perseverance, mutual support and self reliance supported by some welcome assistance from the kindly trail angels you have met along the way.
600 miles, woohoo, awesome effort! Lovely scenery. Keep enjoying.
