I guess 300 is my magic number. Went to UrgentCare and have stress fractures in a couple bones in the right foot, so we are through hiking for the time being. Now I'm going Crappie fishing with my dad. Thanks everyone for all of the support and well wishes. It has been a learning experience, and both Louis and I had a great time. We will definitely be back for more! Thanks again!

AT +23 (304.9 miles)
Wapiti Shelter to Pearisburg VA. A long hike but the terrain wasn't terrible. 2 days back rolled a rock over my foot, gotta get it checked out. Broke 300 miles! Stopped at Woods Hole Hostel for lunch.
AT +22 (285.8 miles)
Lickskillet Hollow to Wapiti Shelter. Very nice day. Lots of rocks, hard on the ankles. Some great views.

AT +20 (ZERO)
Stayed in Bland to rest the hip and knee. Feels much better. Found out Recon fell crossing the same creek I did and got a spiral fracture of his right tibia. Sucks to go out like that.
AT +19 (255.3)
Chestnut Knob Shelter to Bland VA. Long wet hike, need some dry clothes and need to dry out the sleeping bags. In to town to pick up resupply too.
AT +18 (232.6)
Crawfish Valley to Chestnut Knob Shelter. Rained sideways all day. Cold and windy. Had to wait a few minutes for a mamma bear and cub to let us use the trail.
