Interesting day in the Whites. Liberty Spring trail kicked my butt as usual. I saw some young guys with some awesome tattoo's, no I still don't want one. Also saw two really little kids with really big packs on doing their first hikes. I passed them on the way up and after doing Liberty and Flume met them on the way down sitting with dad eating pbj's about .5 below the tent site. They didn't look like happy campers. Also met the Liberty Spring Hut master( is that what they are called?) twice. He went all the way down to his car to go get something to find he had left his car keys up at the tent site. He hiked all the way back up to get his keys then back down to do his business. Then back up. I'm tired just thinking about it. |
