I finished my final section of the LT this weekend, completing the entire trail in 7 section hikes this year, starting on Memorial Day weekend.
This weekend I started at Gulf Rd on the Mass AT, just north of Dalton and hiked the 42 miles up to Rt 9 in Vermont, finishing my last section from the southern terminus to Rt 9 (14 miles). I saved the easiest one for last!
The weather was fantastic this weekend, just past peak foliage, and I could not have asked for a better final trip.
Quoddy ran a shuttle for me from Rt 9 to Dalton on Friday morning. He's been a source of inspiration and advice for me when I was planning my trip and throughout the year. Thanks also to Bobcat for my northern terminus shuttle and all of you that have helped me along the way.
