52 and 21, near Bland, VA. The last three days from Marion have been
tough but fun. The weather has been great, maybe even a bit on the hot
side. The first day out leaving Marion we got a ride with Beans'
parents to the trailhead. Nice low country scenery. Ate dinner at a
roadside cafe called the Barn, had pork BBQ, nothing compared to Sonny
Bryan's or Salt Lick, but I will eat anything right now. Tented that
night for the first time in a while. The next day was pretty tough. We
crossed four ridges; it is much easier to just stay along a single
ridge. Camped ontop of Chesnut Ridge next to a nice pond. Really
enjoying the tent compared to the shelter. Yesterday, another rather
tough days with several good climbs and descents. Tented again at an
awesome campsite next to Laurel Creek and built a campfire Ricky Crum
style. Should be in Pearisburg day after tomorrow. Hope all is well
with you and will update soon.
