Maybe I rely too heavily on weather forecasts and a great disdain for walking in the rain. I have reordered my schedule so I don't have to tent in the rain (a thought, which turned out to come true the next morning). Sometimes an over-dependence on technology (Weatherbug on iPhone) seems like a really terrible thing.

This is in someone's backyard- water, electricity, and toilet.

The view in PA are just OK; it seems crazy that one could get excited about being 2200 feet above sea level (for the record, the BOTTOM of Nantahala Gorge is 1700 feet). However, I am thankful for any view at this point in PA. There is little reward for the amount of rocks that one walks on in a given day. I wanted to stay at the Eckville "Shelter", someone's converted work building out back. It has running water, and there is an electrical outlet and such. It is fairly amazing the extent that some folks will go to help others who hike the AT. Unfortunately, I had only hiked 5 miles by the time I arrived, and I couldn't take that short of a day.
