Nov 19 – Hiawassee

November 19, 2011 by Beardoh

All thru hikers were up by 5:30 this am…sectioners probably not happy, but we had town to hit for breakfast. We had some trouble getting a hitch, so Bobby went up hill to get cell reception and called a shuttle.

In town we hit the buffet for breakfast. It was good, but we all probably ate too much. Beardo had gut ache when we left.

Barely got our maildrop as the motel where it had been sent to was shut down for the season. Luckily, they had a sign for us…

While we were sorting out our food drop, a woman came up and brought some trail magic, some giant cookies and nutrition bars. Also, got a pretty easy hitch out of town with a guy in a pickup.

Slow miles after town with our full bellies and climbing hills.

Our group is back together in full again, as the Brothers3 had went to town last night. Ryan hooked up some speakers to his ipod and we even had music at the shelter this evening.

Daily Distance: 15.5
Trip Distance: 2,123.7
