Start point: Morgan Stewart Shelter
End point: Wiley Shelter
miles hiked: 16.5

Slept in pretty late, even though it wasn't really raining anymore the trees were still dripping water for most of the morning. I was in the mindset that I wasn't going anywhere till I could leave dry. When I finally got up and out of my tent I found I was the last one there. Tried to dry some of my stuff, the sun was out but there was too much tree cover around the shelter to get anything properly dried. Near Nuclear Lake there were some nice sunny spots and I got everything completely dry (for now at least). Met a hiker named Cleancut doing Harpers Ferry, WV to Maine, hiked with him for the last 8 mi.
