Day 168

Got a boat ride back to the trail, but after having a breakfast of fresh eggs from their hens this morning, blue berry pancakes, bacon and juice.

I did a little over 19 miles of hiking after hitting the trail late after breakfast. Got a few congratulations today for being so close.

There was an older couple out day hiking today. They asked if I was a thru hiker, I said yes. They said they were hoping to meet one for the first time. I apologized to them, as they got me all dirty and stinky…lol. Such a prize. lol.

It rained the first half of the day. It was refreshing. Passed by a lot of lakes and other water today.

Set up camp at the Rainbow Spring Campground. Just me here. The spring water is ice cold and the site overlooks the lake.

26.5 miles to go.
