I woke up to the sound of hikers getting ready at 0800 after a comfortable night of sleep. I packed quickly, had a cup of coffee and some oatmeal, and hit the trail, having no idea how hard of a day I was in for. At around 0830, I said goodbye to the Students, knowing I would run into them again soon as we were all headed to October Mountain for the night.
A steep upward hike followed by a steep downhill brought me to I-90. The AT crosses the highway via a footbridge, and I took great delight at taking a break right in the middle and waving at the stopped traffic that stretched for miles in either direction
