Almost to Maine

Starting to just note the dates rather than try to go with the yesterday’s and todays.

8/9 – We finished the presidentials yesterday and ended the day in Pinkham Notch. We went into Gorham NH for a resupply and got a hotel room. It was nice to just kick back and relax.
This morning started slow as we recovered from last night. We grabbed McDonald’s and a resupply and hitched back to the trail.
We climbed Wildcat Mountain today which was a tough but rewarding climb. That seems to be the common trend in the Whites.
It’s funny. I was extremely intimidated by the idea of the Whites, especially after NY. But they are doable and because expectations on mileage is lower, there’s no hurry to move on from the views. They’ve been thoroughly enjoyable!
8/10 – Today’s hike was okay. Pretty rough downhill today. There was a race on the trail and it was annoying constantly getting over for them.
8/10 – We had a 2 mile hike to hitch in town. We resupplied at the last Walmart near the trail! We’re doing another 11 miles and ending right before Maine!
