Where ARE you?

A view of what's ahead from Mt. Mansfield....Camel's Hump,
the Adirondaks, and beyond.
Stairs in Green Mtn Inn. 
4.7 miles

I left Camille at the top of Mt Mansfield, to go to what was going to be a lonely last night at the Green Mountain Inn. The inn has got to be one of the most comfortable, historical places to stay in the area. It's old, well appointed and friendly to thru hikers. We learned after the fact, that if you are a member of the Green Mountain Club you get a substantial discount. Not a bad way to support the trail maintenance and get a respite from it! As it turned out, there is a toll road that comes down near Stowe, from the other side of Mansfield. Camille had gotten a ride down and to the inn before I got back. What a great surprise! We enjoyed a nice dinner at a mexican restaurant and the really fluffy beds, one more night. We headed back up the toll road in the morning and this is what we missed yesterday!


Today!
What a difference a day makes, yesterday....




Met thru hiker Gabriel and we hiked down the mountain together.
