Day 143: 8/21/12

Miles today: 11.4
Total miles: 1,877.9
Miles remaining: 306.3

The hiking here is extreme. Like chug-a-gallon-of-mountain-dew-then-go-win-the-Xgames extreme. I do wish I'd had some kind of rock climbing experience at this point. Very climby, not so hikey, the trail these days. Much of it is crazy steep. I love the uphill stuff but the downhills just seem like nature's death trap to me. But it's super fun too.
I'm feeling anxious now, frustrated by the low-mileage days and starting to think of the finish line. I've been hearing about some of the terrain coming up, and it sounds extreme. Really looking forward to Maine.

Staying at Imp shelter.
