Great day! Weather was cool but clear. I hiked (slackpacked) the Bigelows Southbound today. I ended back at the hostel of Maine for second evening. I hiked with Starcrest and Moss who are from Hagerstown. We covered the 16.5 miles in 7.5 hours. The first time hiking faster than 2.0 miles/hr this year. Although this was the last big mountain range until Katahdin the trail is getting better, with less rocks and roots. The views from the Bigelows were gorgeous! Avery Peak just moved up to my top three views. Today I will be hiking to get close to Caratunk. I would like to be at the River tomorrow at 9:00 when the ferry opens.
Hikers Met: Highlander (nb), Papa Smurf (nb), Hobbitt (nb), sea crest (nb), Moss (nb), pirate (nb).
