Northbound on the Appalachian Trail

August 24, 2012

Start: Hexacuba Shelter

We hit the trail at 9 am for a 15.7 mile day to Glencliff, NH. Right away, we were climbing to the peak of Mt. Cube. We reached 3 or 4 false summits before finally reaching the real summit at 2,911 feet. We took a short snack break and continued down the mountain. The trail climbed Mt. Mist (2200 feet) and eventually reached NH 25 in Glencliff. The caretaker at the Welcome Hiker Hostel is Phatchapp. He gave us a ride to the Carriage Motel in North Woodstock. We got a room for 3 nights so we can do 2 days of slack packing. We finally did some laundry (it had been a while!) and ate at the Woodstock Inn. Tomorrow, we will take on the 4800 foot Moosilauke!!

End: NH 25, Glencliff, NH - Staying at Carriage Motel in North Woodstock

Peace Be The Journey
