Day 12, miles today-1, total-137.3

Today, after hiking into the Nantahala Outdoor Center, I decided to spend the night in a bunkhouse. The trail goes right through here. I picked up a mail/food drop at the outfitter. The next place I plan to take a nero is in Hot Springs NC. That's about 140 miles from here. Weather conditions could change that of course. It's beautiful today. I hope I have a few days like this in the Smokys so I can enjoy the views.

    Bob Larbes : Following your progress has become part of my daily routine. I'm envious of your freedom and the sense of accomplishment you have each day. I didn't mind our snow nearly as much realizing all I had to do was sit on the couch and wait it out while you were trekking through it. Be safe.

    Happy Easter Jeff! The pictures are great and I'm enjoying your blog. The weather should warm up soon and spring will be in full swing. The cold nights will be just a distance memory. Enjoy - Hank

    Blazer,
    I ran 10 miles today and all I could think about was having to get up tomorrow and run 10 more and the next and the next. Keep up the great hike! We had a little sun and slightly warmer. Hope your days have been less cold.
