Today officially makes my hike a four season hike! It’s hard to believe I have been out in the mountains for as long as I have. People keep asking me, “Are you ready to be home?” I don’t know if I am. Sure, I am looking forward to my family and friends, and the luxuries of couches and blankets and elaborate breakfasts, but I do love it out here.

My phone is nearly dead, and there is not much reception here in the “wilderness.” I did want to post a short note, especially as Katahdin, the final climb, is so close. I have about 60 miles left. Only 60.
