No one claimed ownership of last night’s horrific night terror screams. No one else heard them.

I let the through-hikers from our temporary hiking bubble know that this may be the last time we’ll see them. We have some changes coming up today that will cause us to hike fewer miles than normal. They say it has been fun hiking with us over the past few days. I say the same to them. Good luck Antz, Running Bear, and Blue Sasquatch with your through hike ambitions.

We hike through the bright green tunnel to Greasy Creek Gap where Mosey completes the section she came to hike, which fills in a gap in her hikes. She has now completed everything from Springer Mountain in GA to Mountain Harbor Hostel in TN (I19E), three hundred ninety-five miles of the Appalachian Trial is behind her. Good job Mosey.
