(Jenny Knob Shelter --> WoodsHole Hostel) (619.4 mi total)
Today Mike and I awoke early (5:15 a.m.) built a morning fire and then hit the road. Mike wasn't feeling up to par but we both wanted to pull a big day and get to the WoodsHole Hostel where Mike had a re-supply waiting. The day was long but we were able to get a lot done early in the morning, but as the day progressed Mike continually felt worse and worse. Eventually he informed me that he would probably have to leave the trail after we stayed at the hostel. I think the combination of his health and him missing his 8 month old daughter and wife was really taking a toll on him (to a point I know how he feels, missing your loved ones gets to you after a while in the woods). So, we finally made it to my favorite place I have stayed so far..... Neville and Michael (owner's of WoodsHole) are truly great people and have a great/relaxing place.
