August 1 – Zero in Gorham

Post date: Aug 4, 2012 9:18:41 PM

With Dos’ arrival and a zero agreed, the ladies relaxed in the comfortable surroundings of the White Mountain Hostel and prepared their gear for entry into Maine and the legendary Mahoosuc Notch.

As the day wore on, hikers who "Five Pair" had not seen in weeks began arriving, including "Keeper" and "Duke", "Alpo" and others. The hikers assembled at a local pizza parlor and caught up with each other, exchanged stories of their experience in the Whites and discussions had regarding summiting Katahdin.

This restful day concluding with the hiker meal was the perfect entre for the last State of the trail.
