Today we hiked exactly 22 miles. The morning began with our last major elevation change for awhile, so we planned on having easier terrain in the afternoon. Instead the entire trail was just a bunch of rocks, and oftentimes staircases made of rocks.
It really wears on the feet, so it was a tiring day. On a more interesting note, we saw 4 bears today. Tomorrow we only have five miles into Waynesboro.
