Day 36 (July 30)


Today was a short, eight-mile day. I left my stealth camp on the side of the Carrabassett River, climbed South and North Crocker Mountains, and got a ride into Stratton, Maine to resupply, do laundry, and eat real food: beer, chocolate shakes, and pizza. Had a shower and am sleeping in a real bed tonight sans the mosquitoes -- who are largely off digesting 50% of me anyway. I'm running into a number of SOBOs (south-bounders) now. Man am I glad I don't have to do what they have to do, i.e. get through the Whites! Hope to get a 7:00 a.m. start heading north tomorrow. Take care.
