Mountains Under Foot

Hello everyone!

Spoon and I have made it back to Raleigh and after a couple of days highlighted by lots of food and sleep, I am feeling great. I still wake up with foot and leg pain, but I guess I have to come to expect such a thing after hammering out 2200 miles. Other than that it is awesome to be back home with my family and friends reacquainting myself with what normal people do in a given day. On Thursday I came home to my mom’s famous BBQ ribs and a long awaited reunion with Catherine and I know Spoon has been bouncing around between his sisters for various meals and tailgating parties. Slowly but surely we will start to pick up on life where we last left off, but first I have to finish the blog! Have no worries folks as I will be dedicating much of my time (and my mom’s time) to post the final and easily the greatest month we had on the Appalachian Trail. The format will be the same and as always look out for tons of pictures. Don’t miss out on all the stories we have from the Green Mountains of Vermont, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, the Mahoosucs in Maine, and the big guy himself Mt. Katahdin. Plus, there will be more videos posted that never made it to the website because with the new camera the file size was too big to upload directly to YouTube. In fact, if you haven’t already, take a look at Video Blog 10 which documents the half-way point on the trail and was posted in Monson only about a week ago.

More people, more trail magic, and more adventure is coming soon so you can continue to get your healthy dose of MUF!

From the comfort of his pajamas and slippers,
Hazard

PS: Be warned that the pictures of our summit of Mt. Katahdin are WELL worth the wait. But I can’t give you the end before you see how we got there!
