Trials and Tribulations On the Trail
This is Maris reporting in for Tim. I’m supposed to stick to the facts with less narrative so here goes:
15 mile hike to Eckville shelter Sunday May 24th. After 7 miles on assorted rocks and boulders Monday, Tim’s left hiking boot bit the dust and fell apart from all the wear and tear.
Well, they lasted more than 200 miles and 20,000 rocks!
His friend Piston duct taped it and they were able to hike 6 more miles to a camping site where Tim contacted Brenda, (a Trail Angel — good deed doer for hikers) and arranged for a ride to a K-Mart for a quick temporary pair.
Tim will Hike 12 miles on Tuesday into Walnut Port, PA where Brenda will pick him up. Tim and Piston will spend a night in town regrouping and then continue on the trail.
Thanks to all who are reading this and supporting our intrepid hiker both in spirit and in currency.
