I want to go to there

It's been a while since the last update. I've crossed two more state borders since the last time. From Vermont into New Hampshire and from New Hamshire into Maine, the last state on the trail.

Interesting way to make the trail safer...

I slept on top of an observation tower to catch the sunrise.
It was worth it.

Shoe?

I've spend the last two weeks going through the hardest parts of the A.T. The whites. Of course for us who are going north this was not as hard as we have already done 1800 miles and have only 400 to complete the trail. There is a different system to the shelters in the whites. There are huts along the way, which are basically for dayhikers and families to stay in, they are very expensive to stay in. For us Thru hikers we can do work for stay at these places. I've done work for stay at two of the 7 huts in the Whites. One of the work for stay tasks was giving a talk to the guests about hiking the Appalachian Trail, which was a lot of fun to do.

The views in the whites are amazing, and make the hard hike well worth it every day. Here are some of the pictures from the whites.

After the whites we crossed the border into Maine, the last state. Which means from here on out it's only 260 miles to complete my journey. I'm really exited about the last strech of the trail and can't wait to be standing on top off Mount Katahdin (the finish point of the trail). There's not much more to say at this point, a lot of fooling around and meeting interesting people in the U.S. but nothing big besides what i've already said. This update is mainly about the pictures....so have a look below for more of them!

Moose!
