On October 19, I finished my third LT end-to-hike. Started June 15 so obviously I took a lot of zeros to do other things and to minimize hiking in rain or in once case, excessive heat. It helps when you live in VT and are retired.

Much of the hike was slackpacking along with some one-nighters and a few two-nighters. Some were NOBO, some SOBO. I didn't hike the trail "in order" but randomly; a few days in the north might be followed by a few in the south. The point is, I hiked the 270 miles.

Here's the journal - still must be revised to eliminate the numerous typos.
