Another High

A beautiful hot day of hiking checks Koreen and David into another high point of yet another state. At 3491 feet, Mount Greylock near Lanesborough, MA is the tallest point of Massachusetts and brought along with it 88 degree weather, strong humidity, and “voracious” bugs. It’s not all fun and games, but these two still put on their infectious smiles and keep on hiking.

They met some new friends.

And have this to say about their travels so far:

“We are getting to the hardest part of the trail. In fact PA prepared us for the rocks. NJ gave us a little break. NY kept us climbing. CT we climbed more and scrambled a lot. MA was the start of the mud with roots and rocks. Soon we’ll enter VT. Supposed to be a mud fest and the mountains get bigger. Then our biggest fear, the whites of NH. And finally on to ME, with the 100 mile wilderness and Mt. Katahdin.”

It amazes me how much they have done in the last 2 months. At the start of the most difficult part of their trail, there is soo many more miles to travel, and soo many more things too look forward to. So keep sending them good vibes. They are pushing hard to put your hard earned donations to work.
