Day 76, The lake, the nipple and beer

July 13

Leach pond Mile 1050 to The lake below the Nipple mile 1071

Hiked 21 miles

Got on the trail earlier today. 7:40am. Once again Milkman left, then me. And Cree and Bugs where right behind. I'm surprised how quickly the seem to catch up as soon as I stop for water.

Lunch time stop.





Haha once again I tried to take a photo of Cree and Bugs and the lighting is weird. Later I joked about how they don't really exist since they weren't in the photos. Milkman is has the white shirt on. I love taking a nice long lunch break. I ate roman noodles, peanut butter and hot sauce. So good.

Later this is me without my chair taking a break in the dirt. Chair! I want you back!





Have I mentioned how much I miss my chair?

Almost done hiking for the day and look at those...









Kind of looks like a... Is that a nipple? Haha it is. It's the nipple. No it really is. That's what the mountain is called. "The nipple" so awesome.




See I wouldn't make something like that up.




The view from the nipple.




Sweet little lake.

We planned on hiking another 3 miles but we saw this lake a little ways off the trail and just went for it. I was so beat anyways my shin is killing me. Dammit why does it hurt so bad. There was a road up here to this campsite and there was a family car camping. The guy came over and asked if we are thru hikers. He gave us some beer!!! What luck. Two nights in a row I got a beer for the end of the night! Trail magic, got to love it. Man I need to stick with these guys lol.








Where oh where is my chair? Oh yeah like an idiot I sent it ahead. However this time. Laying in the dirt feels awesome, especially with beer in hand.





Great spot to call it a night.
