Another great day of hiking and still manage to have cell signal. Got on the trail at 10 til 7 this morning and put in 7.2 miles to dahlgren backpacker campsite where I'm gonna beat the heat for afew hours then push 5 more miles to pine knob shelter for the night. The hike this am was great ate a ton of wild blue berries! Met up with some more great people too. Passed a garder snake that was eating a toad such a random sight. Might try to catch a hitch from here into town. There's an ice cream place that has some kind of half gallon challenge,lol bring it on. Learned a new game today lol its called lighter toss its very similar to hacky sack but instead of your feet you use the tops of your hands. That's all I have for now. Will update tonight from pine knob if I have service.
