My trip along the Appalachian Trail

This is a diary of sorts from the past that chronicles my journey across the Appalachian Trail in 1989. The Appalachian Trail is a continuous hiking path that extends from Georgia to Maine, and is over 2100 miles of some extraordinary hiking that traverses 14 states. This trip was the fullfillment of a lifelong dream. I hope not only to relive this dream in the pages of this blog, but I hope to take you along as well. So put on your hiking boots and enjoy the trip!

Day 6

Sunday, April 9, 1989

The weather was a little better today. At least it was dry with some spectacular views. There is rain in the forecast tonight but this shelter should provide more cover than my tent. I guess that ET and I have become hiking partners; for a while anyway. My Achilles tendon flared up a couple of days ago and it is making it hard to hike. So far the whole experience has been great even with the bad weather and all. I'm looking forward to tomorrow already!
