3.2 + 9.3 mi

| The fire pit the next morning. |
It poured off and on all night. If anything, what was dry in the cabin absorbed the moisture in the air. The four guys were up and heading out before I was ready to leave. As we were getting ready to leave, Scout, a thru hiker arrived to let us know of storm warnings with hail were on the way, the worst being between noon and 3. We knew we may not make it out of the mountain areas and decided to wait till after 3. Scout left in what appeared to be a clearing around 2:45, and about 15 minutes later, the skies opened up with thunder and heavy rain. We stayed, snug in our bags, read and caught up on needed rest. It was a good layover.
We had a couple of guys bunk in our cabin that evening, Leo and Sean from Philly. They were thru hikers going north so gave us good beta about the trail that was coming up.

I was definitely happy to stay put, especially since Camille looked like she could use the rest, too!
