After the 1-3 inches of rain (was closer to 3) we got last night we got a late start as we waited for a break in the rain to get the tent packed up and somewhat wiped off. A bunch of the trail looked more like a river and we got some pretty wet and muddy feet from that. The sun finally broke through in the afternoon and it got really hot and sticky as the ran evaporated away. The views from the top of Wesser Bald was great and had some 360 degree views from the top of the observation tower there. Ended another "short" day at the Wesser Bald shelter with the same crew from last night And had another nice night at the campfire. Spent our first night in an actaul shelter since we wanted to have a quick escape in the morning to get down the 3000 feet into NOC. We will see how this experiment goes tomorrow. We are looking forward to our half day with 5.7 miles to get into NOC and what will be our last night not in a tent for 13 days until we get into Hot Springs, TN where will take our first planned "zero day" including two nights in a hotel.
