We did an 18 mile day through the cold and wet. My feet were soaked and really hurt. We camped at an elevation of nearly 6,000 feet. We heard there was a cold front moving through the Smokies, and I thought we might see some snow. Fortunately, the rain did not turn into snow.
We have been bouncing above and below spring since we started at Springer. Spring started below about 4,500 feet today. Its amazing to see the difference in plant life with elevation. It think we might be in spring the rest of the trip.
It was an amazingly erie day walking in the fog. I took a few pictures.
Road Rash and I got to the hostile at about 3 PM. Shamrock decided to go to the hostile too. Thought Food got in a little later. Hobo Joe is also staying at the hostile.
We are going to zero tomorrow and rest and do laundry. We hear there is a bear getting into food bags at the next couple shelter.
