End point: Wayah Shelter
miles hiked: 11
Took it nice and slow today. Great weater, the kind of sun that reminds me of the Bay Area in California. Just hot enough to warm the top of your skin, and the perfect breeze to cool you off. Perfect day to climb Wayah Bald, from the stone observation tower at the top you could see all the way to Clingmans Dome, the highest peak in the Smoky Mountains (prob 50-60mi away). Ran into Catching Dreams and Cimarron again. Cimarron is an 86 year old guy, if he completes a thru hike he will be the oldest to have done it. Ate some dinner and went to sleep pretty early.
Both the pics were taken from the stone observation tower at Wayah Bald
