Moosilauke is the first major climb in the White Mountains. This was the sunrise about two miles from the summit of Moosilauke. Mount Lafayette! I think this looks a little like a pussy, but maybe thats just me… Anyways…there’s so much that happens out here I feel overwhelmed when trying to sit down and summarize [...] Vermont was hiking through the Green Mountains. Lots of hemlocks, white pines and birch trees. Vermont was hiking out of green hills and into fields of blooming goldenrod and purple flowers I haven’t learned the name of yet. Vermont was crazy rain storms on top of mountains, where we were stuck camping on an outcropping, [...] I’m in Vermont. All of the mountains have been green thus far, but for some reason these are officially dubbed the Green Mountains. The air is beginning to get colder at night. Yesterday I picked a maple leaf off the ground, it looked like it fell off the tree as it was trying to change. [...] Housatonic River, Connecticut. So internet, last time we spoke I was making a spontaneous trip to Vegas for the Desiree Alliance Conference. It was fucking awesome! The best spontaneous decision ever!

They call it the Virginia Blues, the feeling of hopelessness that you’re never going to get out of Virginia. Its the biggest state on the trail, over 500 miles long. Virginia was supposed to be the promise land, it was going to be flat, easy hiking, switchbacks. I guess [...] Still hiking. Wish I had awesome philisophical epiphanies to share but I don’t. I’m mostly mentally tied up in the day to day events, planning has become secondary almost pointless activity because things change all the time and then there’s the weather. I got a call the other day that some people found my site [...] I wake up in the morning to birdcalls and the many stages of the sunrise. Have you noticed that there are more stages to the sunrises and sunsets when you’re in the forest versus when you’re in the city? The sun takes a long time to come up and go down, dusk and dawn become [...] Hello hello. I am alive and well. Its been about a week and I”ve spent every single day tired, sweaty, hot and dirty but for some reason its fun. Yesterday I hiked 17 miles and I haven’t felt better.
