Yeah!


The waterfall had helped clear my head - and was on my way to the Moreland Gap shelter. Brand new in 2006 - and built by hikers - it rocked! - 3 levels and benches/bar all the way around. Bob Peoples also runs "Hard Core Trail Days" volunteer crews. Hikers sign up (50 from the current class, and 50 from previous classes) to give back. They built that shelter in 1.5 days - carrying all the materials in and tools. On my way there - noticed a sign on the ground from another hiker - we had just passed the 400 mile mark. Made me feel great - actually doing this.
