This is going to be a relatively short post mostly with pictures, just because I got behind (again)! On the stretch of the hike from Waynesboro to Front Royal, we had a supporter at each end of the park. It is roughly 108 miles and I did the stretch in 6 days. We were luckily able to do a slack pack for the first 20.1 miles back into Waynesboro. From there I hiked 22.1 miles from Black Rock Gap to High Top Hut. I reached the 800 mile marker during this stretch!
Another big day heading 20.4 mi to Big Meadows, and then a little bit of relief on a shorter day to meet my friend at Skyland for a dinner. Tabitha was my college roommate and I have known her since elementary school!
After leaving skyland resort I made my way 37.7 miles towards the exit of The Shenandoahs at the town of Front Royal. We hiked through Big Meadows State Park and actually got to stay in the cabin there. I was picked up by one of the rangers and she took me to town to do a quick resupply and grab Taco Bell.
At this point of the Appalachian Trail a lot of hikers start getting really excited for Harpers ferry, the unofficial town halfway point! I was excited to get there myself. Signing off for now, Feather Blue šŖ¶š
