It's Saturday morning August 14th and I've arrived at Dalton, Mass, about 619 miles from my start at Katahdin Mt. in Maine. My friend "Butter" who I hiked with during earlier stages of the trail has recovered from his giardia infection and has rejoined me on the trail. He will hike with me for another 9 days or so, until he has to leave to go back to school.
The last four days or so has been somewhat uneventful, my friend from high school, Austin, joined me for a few days until we reached the Massachusetts board and then he took a bus back to Manchester.
Yesterday I did about 20 miles from Wilbur Clearing Lean-to into Dalton and went over Greylock Mt. the tallest mountain in Massachusetts.
Thursday I did about 17 miles and crossed from Vermont into Massachusetts.
Wednesday we hiked 6 miles into Bennington and Austin and I just hung out.
On Tuesday, Austin and I did about 18 miles and went over Glastenbury Mountain. I took a picture of a fire tower.
On Monday we left Manchester Center and did 21 miles and crossed over Stratton Mt, one of the three highest mountain peaks in Vermont.
