Day 20 – A Blustery Day

Left out of Cold Spring late after the storm overnight and hiked slow, partially because Bluebird was trying to catch up. The rain was done but strong winds whipped across the ridges. The Wesser Bald tower view was amazing but I darn near got blown off the tower.

After meeting Rush the Vistula, I rolled into Wesser Bald Shelter at 3:15, leaving 5.7 miles into the NOC tomorrow.
