Day 75 June 20 to Ironmaster Hostel

The morning was cool and clear.  Almost needed my vest.   But I warmed up after about 15 minutes because the trail climbed right away.  There we're a number if beautiful streams.  

The trail was surrounded by lush green forest. 

At times it was like a carpet. 

I passed one of the nicest shelters I've yet seen. 

Today I  crossed the 1092.55 Mark. That is the official half point for the Appalachian Trail.

Later I passed the old half way marker which is out of date

I arrived at Pine Furnace State park and stayed at the Ironmasters Mansion Hostel. Before checking in I did an A.T. Tradition and went to the General Store and ate a half gallon of ice cream. ( but they really only half quart and a half containers). Butter pecan and 2070

Calories in 35 minutes.
