Day 121

Weather:
Sunny morning, high lower 70's. Afternoon thunderstorm's.

Today's Hike:
Mohican Outdoor Center to Blue Mtn. Rd/YMCA – 7.3 miles

We were back on the trail after a wonderful day off. The morning was filled which much of same as previous mornings; rocks. Ugh! We've heard that the rocks never go away. We hope that these rumors are false. Otherwise I just may loose it. Hiking constantly over rocks sucks.

A thunderstorm rolled in around 1pm, and we made our way to an abandoned YMCA camp to take shelter. Creepy. It was the stuff that horror movies are made of. At least we weren't hiking in lightening again. The thunderstorm passed through by 3pm, but rain continued. By 5pm we called it a day, and set up our tents in a shelter by the lake. The rain was done by 6pm, and we borrowed some canoes that were there. The water was crystal clear blue and warm. We spent 30 minutes racing the Packadivas around lake. Way to much fun!
