Into Vermont he goes...Thursday July 17th

I spoke with Tom midday Thursday as he was resupplying in North Adams, Massachusetts at the Price Chopper Supermarket. He and " Hemlock" had just been able to hitch a ride into town from the trail and enjoyed breakfast at Friendly's. Yesterday was a long day of hiking and they ended up finishing after dark at the Wilbur Clearing Shelter. That made it a 20 mile day ...up and down Mt.Greylock in one day!
Their day started with rain which meant hiking all day in  mud with wet shoes. It had cleared by the time they reached the top and the weather seems to be mid 70'swith some great views.
