Jul 1 – To Monson

July 1, 2011 by Beardoh

Short day today as we were heading into Monson. Beautiful sunny day with a breeze. Very much enjoyed the walk today and stopped at a couple ponds to enjoy the scenes.

Because of a fairly late start, got into town at 3pm with a lift from some gals that had hiked the AT in 2008. Great fortune as we walked out just a few minutes before them and were headed into town without really waiting at all.

Monson is a small Maine town. We grabbed pizza and beers at the Lakeshore Inn and sat down on the lake…great day in the sun.

Staying at Shaw’s Hostel has been good. Great breakfast and reasonable room prices.

Daily Distance: 11.3
Trip Distance: 115.2
