Pictures from the Trail

As Matt's time off the Trail winds down over the next couple of days, I wanted to quickly pass along the second series of pictures that he mailed my way.

Some breathtaking pictures in this album. Varied landscapes, great views, and diverse hiking conditions.

The reprieve from the Trail has done the hikers a great deal of good over the past week, as Matt reports that he is feeling rested, stronger and more motivated to continue his journey than ever before.

The current plan is to Aqua-Blaze through the Shenandoah Valley and up to Harper's Ferry, W.V. This promises to be a great adventure for the hikers as well as a chance to continue resting their legs. Here's hoping that the river isn't too low. Nothing like carrying a canoe a couple of hundred miles through ankle-deep water to ruin morale...

Looking ahead, I hope to catch up with Matt once or twice more before he sets out for the Shenandoah Valley. Will definitely be in touch with more posts as they begin Part 2 of this great journey.

AT for CZC continues!
