Not much besides hiking today. We did add a new gap to the ever growing list. Neels Gap. Neels has the distinction of being home to one of the best hiking outfitters on the AT (that’s what I’ve read). This is a pretty good location for such a retailer, as at this point you’ve been on the trail for roughly 5 days, and you are starting to get an idea of what works and doesn’t work for you. You can also resupply your food here. Here’s a link to their outstanding website.

First hiker boxes of the trail.

We also came across a “shoe tree”. This seemed a bit surprising, because it’s only been 50ish miles. Getting rid of shoes at this point would seem odd. Anyway, interesting to look at.
