Today will feel like a corner has been turned for many of the hikers. Not only is it sunny and warm in the mountains this morning, but tomorrow is also pick up day!
We had some rain this evening on campus that amounted to little more than a sprinkle in the mountains. One group told me they had all their sleeping bags and layers hung out to dry when the rain came in. In a flash the students pulled their sleeping bags, set up the tents and had everything bombproof within 10 minutes! Looks like this group has mastered some soft and hard skills here!
I got second hand news from the Reel Brook group. They were sighted yesterday on track with their planned route ascending to Liberty Spring tent platforms. Assuming all is continuing to go well with them that means they will climb over Mt. Flume today and get big views.
Groups will be meeting pick up drivers tomorrow morning and returning to campus. By noon they should be done with unpacking and cleaning their equipment. Pretty exciting!
