Heat is getting old really quick - last week all above 90 and the humidity is worse than KC. Nothing like being in wet clothes for 10 hours a day. Climbed Bear Mountain - by the time we got to the bottom - the Zoo was closed. Would have been weird - seeing animals in cages that I have been seeing just several yards away. If the zoo had been open - would have gone down to the AT's lowest point - 124 feet. Instead - took another path - and then over the Bear Mountain Bridge. Heat is taking a toll. Mind and body are ready for a zero. Planning one in Dalton, Mass. Currently hiking with Freebird, Beatbox, Butters, Barefoot, Hotwheels, Shutterbug, Bear Pack, Bear Bait, Pacer, Snake Whisperer, and Shelter Monkey. Big group.

KD - I haven't commented in a long time, but I've been keeping up with your travels. I didn't comment because I knew it would sound like all the other - but HOLY COW man, you're kicking ass! This is such an amazing adventure. You look fantastic and sound so strong mentally. Good for you for doing this. Stay strong and know we're all thinking of you and pulling for your success everyday!
Take care, Stacey
I ran into Shelter Monkey and Snake Whisperer at Loft Mountain, VA, in Shenendaoh National Park on September 21. They seemed to be in good health and spirits.
