One Day in New England

I wake up at 6:00 am in the back of my car: AT treailhead in Franconia Notch State Park. By 6:30 I’m on the Falling Water’s Trail, and walking the ridge, totally alone, as the sun rises over the White Mountains. By 11 am I’m in my car, driving with the windows down and sunroof open on undulating, uninterrupted New Hampshire and Maine roads. At 7pm, I’m watching whales dance and spout off the Bristol coast. A magical day.

Drove across the country, started fine furniture making school. I get one day off a week, and this is the first place I visited on my cherished weekends.

It didn’t disappoint.

I set off on the PCT hoping to hike 2650 miles, but decided I’d had enough after 109 (plus a lot of road walking). 5 hiking days felt like a month, and two of those days I hiked 26 and 35 miles. I was nearly bitten by a rattlesnake, I survived 110*+ heat in the desert, and walked along edges of mountains that made my palms sweat and my knees weak. All along the way are trail angels and people going out of their way to help and welcome PCT hikers, and the community, to me, is almost as impressive as the hiking itself. A big thank you to anyone that offered a ride, or a place to stay, or ignored how bad we all smelled to make life a little bit easier. Thru-hiking really comes down to this: adjusting your perspective to be reminded that it’s the little things that make a difference.

Legs were so sore from yesterday’s run to Cape Pillar. It was frigid morning. Temperatures were sub zero and I hardly had any sleep. . Poked my head out of the tent just before dawn only to see cloudy skies and instantly wanted to crawl back. Had to drag myself out to the beach. Soon, the clouds started clearing and got a chance to witness an epic sunrise 🌅 . #worthit .

It’s been my bucket list to summit Cradle mountain but today wasn’t the day. Gust, rain and snow made it hard to get anywhere close to 500 meters. . Instead had to settle down with a run and did the circuit around Dove Lake. Dramatic weather conditions made the place so green and lively. . #takethetrail @bedrocksandals @australia #exploreaustralia @tasmania #discovertasmania #cradlemountain #dovelake #trailrunning #tasmania #trailchat #mountains #nature @natgeoadventure #instatravel #instaadventure @insta360 @runitfast (at Dove Lake Circuit)
