| Comments: |
Was glad to wait for today, weather was perfect. Passed quite a few north-through hikers, one with a broken arm! She broke it in Connecticut and was carefully working her way to Katahdin, complaining--rightfully so-- about Fishin' Jimmy on the descent with one good arm. Tough cookie though. |
