Day: 130, 8/28/2013: Elize Brook Shelter

16.8 miles hiked, This was a very long day. Mount Moosilauke was very tough and technical going up. I felt pretty good and decided to press to the next shelter. Around 3-4pm thunder started while I was on a long ridge climb. An hour later I passed the summit of mount Wolf and some light rain started. Thunder was constant and I started descending which was good. However, some lightning also started which was very nerve wracking! There were minimal places to camp and since I was descending and mostly in trees I pushed on to the shelter. The rain stopped and I made the shelter around 7:30pm. It was full so I pitched a tent for the night which had some occasional rain.

Milestones: 1,800 miles
