Day 109

We woke up to a nice dry day and decided to do what on paper looked like an easy 23 mile day. The guy who makes the guide book needs to add some way to show how good/bad each section of trail is. Our easy 23 miles had us doing 5 miles walking on sideways sloping granite, with nice views

 but really hurts the feet.
Then later in the day we were hiking along some rocky almost scree rock for 4 miles. Which again really hurts the feet and slows us down a lot. Toward the end of the day we got to the Keefer oak, which is the 2nd largest oak on the trail. Here is a picture of the two big oaks, the Dover oak up in NY and the Keefer oak with my pack and poles as a size reference.
