Just back from 4 nights/5 days on the AT in Maine. SOBO, Sabbath day pond to Grafton Notch ~ 40 miles.

This is a great section of trail with a little bit of everything Maine has to offer. Often all in one day. As I had hoped, the colors were at peak and the views stunning. For those of you who have yet to experiance Maine in the fall, your missing out on some of the best (or some of the worst if the weather turns nasty) hiking the AT has to offer.

I met at least 50 NOBO's still stumbling thier way towards Katahdin. Many of them I had meet in Vermont over a month ago and had suggested they pick up the pace. Guess they didn't listen and now thier running out of time and good weather. Too bad.
