Kufstein

We didn't spend much time in Kufstein. It was just a transit stop to and from Söll with a train station. We left right away when we arrived but spent a couple hours there waiting for our train when leaving. It was an attractive town and had a lot to offer. We might have to go back some day.

Rocks in the Rain

I did what was probably the worst rock field I've ever seen today and I did it in a downpour. The rocks get slippery so it was not only hard but slow. But, I made it. One careful step at a time.

AT Attempt #3

Image
I started my third attempt to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail on March 6. Sherry is following along with our RV and will provide support. Hopefully, that will be enough to get me to the end this time. I started at the southern terminus (Springer Mt) in Georgia this time (in the snow) and the trail is much easier than the ones up north. Good thing because I couldn't get in as much training as I normally like to. I'm both out of shape and more than 20 pounds overweight. That's like carrying an extra backpack.  I've been on the trail for a week and even took my first zero to be with Sherry on our anniversary. I'm staying in a shelter tonight for the first time this hike because the forecast is calling for high winds and thunderstorms tonight - part of the adventure. Otherwise, things are going well, and I'm picking up speed. We're hoping to finish around Labor Day, plus or minus. It's difficult for me to do these posts on my phone with my fat fingers but I...

Hot Springs, NC

I managed to do 67 miles in five days to get here from Newfound Gap. That's better than 13 miles per day, twice what I was doing earlier. I'm up to mile marker 275. I'm not about miles, but if you want to finish this thing you have to put in the miles at some point. Still, it was a demanding stretch and I took a zero day here to rest up. Along with the miles, I also did another 9200 feet of ascent and 10700 feet of descent, bringing me to 105,000 feet of total ascent and 109,000 feet of total descent. Sherry and her friend Dana dropped me off at Newfound Gap Friday morning and I hiked 30 miles in two days to finish the national park, spending the last night in this weird shelter that had caging across the front. Wasn't even comfortable. I did all that so I could get to I-40 in the morning and meet my friend Restless. We met when we were both doing the Long Trail in Vermont in 2021 and we've stayed in touch since. She did a thru-hike last year and decided to join me ...
