Miles today: 11.8
Total miles: 386.5
Finally made it over Roan Mtn this morning after last night's weather cut yesterday's hike short. Several ups and downs in elevation today, with the usual beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.
Stopped early today; I'm nursing a shin splint that's slowing me down. I camped at a clearing with this dude "Lucky Ten," who was among those of us caught in the hail on Roan. It was just the two of us, we had some good conversation over a campfire. He's an older guy, in his early fifties, which makes him far more fun to talk to than many of the younger guys who only talk about boring inane stuff like stupid things they did with their buddies when they drank too much MGD.
Heading into town tomorrow to resupply. Not sure which town just yet but we'll see.
