Day: 52, 6/11/2013: Pearisburg, VA
16.6 miles hiked, It rained most of the night but had stopped when we started hiking. However, another wet day of hiking. Got a room and some Mexican food.
After 630 miles and 3 years of regular use, my boots have had it. The tread is minimal and I was occasionally slipping going into Damascus over a week ago. And, that was in dry conditions! The past week has been pretty wet and the trails are incredibly soaked in some areas. The past two days there have been streams coming down the trails and puddles that you have to go into the woods to get around.
My new boots are here though and I will try them out today.
