Time Marches On
Maris reporting [Sept. 19th]:
With trepidation on my part and excitement of only having 114 miles left to go, Tim has entered the 100 Mile Wilderness. He had an excellent breakfast of all-you-could-eat pancakes, eggs over easy and bacon. Monk even got his own stack!
They made him a cairn of pancakes!
Tim covered about 37 miles in 3 days walking from Caratunk to Monson, ME. He climbed up, over and through more rock scrambles like this one on Moxie Bald Mountain,

and had to ford several rivers and streams. One river, The Piscataquis, has a very fast current and is so wide that there is a rope strung to help hikers across.
The Piscataquis River felt cool on my feet.
Rosencrantz crosses East Branch of Piscataquis River.
He says the weather has been beautiful; a little hot for his taste (in the 80’s during the day) but getting cool at night. We are praying for a cool clear day next Saturday when he will hopefully summit the holy grail of Mt. Kathadin.
I will meet him at the end of the trail and enjoy some fall foliage as we drive back to SC.
Cell phone service is spotty or non-existent in the Wilderness so you will get updates as I do. Check back in, leave comments, send positive thoughts.
Thank you all for your love and support.
