Day 22 To Hexacuba Shelter

After taking a shorter day into Norwich I needed to make up some distance.  So it was off to Hexacuba shelter.  I started at 6:20 am.

Since the sun was finally back it was also a hot day. And there would be two mountain (Holts Ledge and Smarts Mountain) and over 3500 ft of climbing. At top end of Smarts there was steep bit with lots rocks, roots.

I needed to carry water to the shelter and here was a good source. 

When I got Hexacuba Bivo, DT, Blue Ox, Babbet where already there but the shelter was large (and hexagonal) so I bunked in. 

Miles: 17.7 miles
2016 Miles: 276.8
Total AT miles: 1775.6
