Day 112

Day 112

Mixedup Jul 8th, 2022
Mixedup's 2022 AT Thru-Hike

I hiked 32.2 miles today. Mom and my two youngest sisters came up this morning so I slackpacked today and I’ll do that again tomorrow. It was a tough day today I had three different big climbs that were all pretty steep. But I still managed to finish it in 12 and a half hours. I passed the 2,000 mile marker nearer the end of the day today, oh yeah. That means I have less than 200 miles to go. These mountains got nothin on me. However that was not the most exciting part of the day. About 1.5 miles from where mom was going to pick me up I was hiking along with my head down looking at the ground making sure I don’t trip over anything then I looked up and 50 yards in front of me standing in the middle of the trail was a moose as soon as it saw me it went crashing into the woods sounding as if it was tearing down trees as it went. But right when I had seen it I stopped in my tracks and my jaw dropped a little bit I had been looking forward to seeing a moose for a while and now I’ve seen one, yes let’s go. It did have small antlers but they weren’t very big but the moose looked really big it was really cool. The only downside is that I didn’t get a picture of the moose? but it was still super cool to see. I’m looking forward to tomorrow.
