Nothing exciting since leaving Daleville. Just pure hiking. Reef has fallen behind , and I don't know of he will catch up. Pushing on to Buena Vista, for food and Batman! Terrain isn't bad, but water is still hard to find. Will continue on.

Hi ho! I was doing a short one-nighter in VA and stayed at Harper's Creek shelter. Ran into Reef there (hooked him up with water, as all they had there was a dirty puddle), and he's been really logging some miles as of late. I suspect you'll be seeing him pretty soon! (He seemed to be in good spirits, and is looking forward to getting out of VA as soon as possible).
Hey Bigfoot! I hope your nero in Front Royal was awesome and with lots of food. I made it all the way back (all that uphill was tough stuff) to the shelter that we stayed at the night before...luckily. I just got back home and found out that I could've kept going North with you instead of backtracking all those miles. Dang. Keep on keepin' on!!!
