Erwin, TN to Indian Grave Gap
30 April 2005, Saturday ~ 8.8 miles
Camped in kind of a crappy spot, but it's raining and it was 7:30pm when I stopped. I just didn't want to push my luck. Setting up the tarp in the rain is a bitch and in the dark also a bitch, so both. I've also got it pitched too low, but it is drier that way.
Stopped at Curly Maple Shelter for dinner around 5pm. Peanut and crew were there. Thrifty was deciding - he probably stayed. Sparks and Spicy Thigh slacked through.
I probably should have stayed, but it was so early.
I'm probably too close to the forest road here, but I can't hear anything over there. I'm near the trail with the tarp facing away.
Had a free Coke today, and I've got the crumpled can to prove it. No trashcan since I drank it.
