End: Belter's Campsite, Tent

Hot and sunny
Well, this 15.2m day was a tough one. I think it was a combination of the late night yesterday, the heat and the constant ups and downs all throughout the day. And some steep ones too. Made for some slow walking... But we made it and are relaxing a bit tonight. The camping area is in the pines, and it's pretty quiet tonight. Just us and 2 other hikers.

15 miles today...right in our wheelhouse. of course, we got a bit of a late start due to our late day yesterday, but a good day nonetheless. although, we had a lot of little ups and downs today. ct is a nice warm up for the upcoming tough parts. my back was pretty grouchy this morning, but felt great the rest of the day. all in all a good day. the only real downer was the mosquitos tonight...fairly aggressive. it looks like some bigger climbs tomorrow, but we're going to try to push 18 into massachusetts...stay tuned.
