27 March 12010, Dick's Creek<br /> Last night was extremely windy and when I got up in the middle of the night Rock Steady was busy trying to reset up hit tarp tent in the wind and I could tell he was not having fun doing it. When I got up in the morning his tarp was laying over the top of him flat on the ground.<br /> <br /> This morning was not a fun morning to be packing up and hitting the trail. The wind was blowing at about 35 mph. I could not ...

26 March 2010, Sassafras Gap Last night Gipc Girl got up quite a few times in the night to go into the bathroom. I had assumed that she was making a normal bathroom call and minded my own business.

Yesterday was the first time I was able to use my hammock. I have set it up again tonight. There is another couple here that also has hammocks set up. They are Rachael ...
23 March 2010, Low Gap Shelter Hopper dropped me off at Neels Gap this morning and she headed back to KY. The plan for her it to get whatever she has to get done in KY and meet me somewhere on the trail around Franklin. When I left the Gap the weather was cold, windy and snowing. I put my rain coat on and quickly moved out. As I started climbing Levelland Mountain it started changing between snow and sleet. The temps also started dropping. Shortly after lunch the weather ...
