July 10 – Shelter to Shelter

Post date: Jul 15, 2012 12:20:40 AM

The trail is becoming increasingly more mountainous as "Five Pair" travels north in Vermont through the Green Mountain National Forest as if trying to prepare the hikers for the White Mountains.

Climbing upward to Porcupine Ridge, the hike turned even further upward towards the 3700 foot summit of Glastenbury Mountain and the photo opportunity view. Thereafter, the hike was a gentle downward trek with a couple ups and downs thrown in for good measure over the next seven miles and then a short hike upward into the Story Spring Shelter area where "Five Pair" met up with "T", "Dos" and "Alpo".
