17.0 miles, 1897.4 total, 280.9 to go.
I'm in MAINE!!
got an easy hitch out of gorham back to the trail this morning at 8. had a bunch of ups and downs including climbing over mt hayes, cascade mt, and mt success. I think they're 2555, 2600, and 3560 respectively. it was sunny and beautiful all day...until I got here. now it's pouring. ha. I won!
today I caught up with thru hikers Moses and Spokes. they passed me when I stopped in NYC and I've been chasing them ever since. finally got to meet them nice guys.
tomorrow I go through Mahoosuc Notch. it's touted as the most difficult mile on the entire trail. fun, fun, fun. can't believe I'm here. still have a long way to go, but I made it to Maine. wow.
later,
