Hiked again today with Chris, Anna, and their dog Beau up and over Spaulding Mt., past Sugarloaf ski resort, and up and over the Crocker Mts. down to the road that leads into Stratton, ME. We struggled for a hitch more than any other time I can remember, but we finally got a ride in for resupply just as the sun went down and the temps started getting quite cold while we waited. A couple of nice hot pizzas later, the three of us decided to all split a $30 motel room at the White Wolf Inn, which turned out to be quite nice. Spending a nice night in a bed knowing you're going to sleep in? Priceless.
