I interupt the normal flow of posts for a special announcement.
Dateline ...MONSON, ME - AUGUST 15TH 2007
At approximately 5:00 PM Yeseterday (8/15/07), the hiker known as BadAss Turtle (BAT) arrived in Monson, ME, having completed her end-2-end hike of the Appalachian Trail that started in March of 2001. BAT was unable to complete her hiked in 2001 and has returned to the trail every year since to fill in the segments she had missed - the last of which being from Rangeley to Monson. In the course of this section hike we were treated to a meeting with ATtroll (of Whiteblaze.net fame) at West Carry Pond Lean-to.
To celebrate her accomplishment and recognize her perseverence, we are headed up to Baxter today and will summit Katahdin in the morning.
I know return you to your normall scheduled Whiteblaze banter ...
