Today is an easy day. Less than 9 miles to Cherry Gap Shelter. We are still testing out Not Sure’s heel. Good thing we are. After about 5 miles his knee started to really hurt. There were no roads between then and the shelter, so he decided to push to the shelter and then get picked up at Iron Mountain Road which is 3 miles farther tomorrow morning. 2 knees and I plan to continue on. Hopefully, Not Sure can rejoin us farther down the trail. There was a sick hiker tenting near the shelter. He probably has Norovirus which is scary lucky everyone stayed clear of him, but definitely makes me second guess sleeping in the shelter. However, it’s suppose to rain tonight so oh well. Wish me luck.
