11.8 miles hiked, Great sunny and cool day for hiking. Met a couple from Portsmouth, NH at the shelter. This is the second couple from Portsmouth I have met on the trail. The next morning I went down to the pond around 7:20am to get some water and saw 2 moose. A mother and young one. I went to get my camera and told everyone and we all went to the pond. We watched them for 20+ minutes and the young one eventually came over to within 10-12 feet from us!
