Daily updates from my 30 days hiking the AT in 2011: From Bear Mountain NY to Manchester Center, VT. Hopefully a few little sections afterwards too!

Day 9: Skiff Mountain and St. John's Ledges
Hiked 7.3 miles yesterday from Mt. Algo shelter to Stonybrook River campsite. Tough 7.3 miles for us, up Skiff Mtn, then across a bunch of ridges. Descended at St. John's Ledges which is very steep and really bad for Chad's knee. Saw some rock climbers there, I should have taken a pic for you, there is one on Chad's camera that I will add eventually. After the Ledges it was an easy hike along the Housatanic River to our site. We took a bath and washed our clothes simultaneously (swam in our clothes). Not sure if we smell any better but it feels good. Ate mac and cheese with broccoli for dinner, played some cards and went to sleep.
