3 days. That's how long it took for my #hiking boots to dry after fording a river this weekend. This was an experiment. Normally when I walk through water (when hopping rocks isn't possible), I have worn my vented trail runners. No problem-- they start feeling normal right away. But this is the first time I've done it with waterproof boots. It was the last mile of the hike, so why not? The boots were uncomfortable the rest of the hike-- would not want to do this at the beginning of a trip!


3,5 timme vandring klar, det var blött som tusan, vi gick fel en gång men det känns som en succé givet förutsättningarna. Fler foton följer. #hiking #Gästrikeleden #Sweden

October 1, 1983: After crossing Pollywog Stream on a logging road bridge, the AT proceeded to Rainbow Stream, which it followed for a good distance upstream, passing a long series of cascades and small waterfalls in the boulder-strewn shallow waters.

August 31, 1983: The Appalachian Trail followed some dirt roads through a pleasant farm valley encircled by mountains and reentered the forest to begin a rather taxing climb up to Holts Ledge, the first real mountain it had thus far traversed in New Hampshire. It kept turning onto one woods road after another, and each was a bit steeper than the preceding one.

Pictured: Pen Mar Park from High Rock.
July 14, 1983: Entering Pen Mar Park was a relief. In the years around 1900, this spot was billed as the Coney Island of the Blue Ridge, with an amusement park, seven hotels and about a hundred boarding houses. After years of slow decline, the park was forced out of business by World War II gas rationing in 1943.

September 1, 1983: The trail down the far side of Smarts Mountain was in worse shape than the ascent had been, but what did that matter to a man surrounded by that kind of magnificence? The AT lunged downward across more of those dripping, mossy rocks.
