it may only be our second day on the actual long trail, but you can never have too many town days...
our first night out we cowboyed on top of mt greylock, woke up with the sun and the dew falling around 5am, and made it to the williamstown stop & shop before 9am. that afternoon, set up camp in the rain, only to discover this monster of a tent we are carrying is too large to fit on a standard wooden tent platform. it rained all night our second night out, ensuring that the vermont/mass border would be as muddy as we remembered it.
it was. a giant mud pit surrounded by and filled with rocks. vermont, some things never change.
we are now in bennington, our first official town day on the long trail (yes, only one day in...) staying with chris and arla, trail angels who open their house and barn for hikers to stay and chill.
oh, and fyi, long trail festival in rutland, be there or be square.
