Virtual AT: Pochuck Shelter to NJ/New York State Line

"Beans...hitting the virtual trail again!"

But first a PSA:  Take a hard pass on the One Pot Pasta with Marinara...you'll thank yourself later.

Says it is food.

Not actually food.

BLEAH.

(...yes...I suffer so you don't HAVE to...)

Down Pochuck Mountain



Across Pochuck Swamp

And the Pochuck Suspension Bridge

And to the Amazing Pochuck Boardwalk

(...I may just be easily amused...but I really LOVE this part...)

Boardwalk and
Suspension Bridge Hike
(First-Person View)

(...maybe because I could do this board-walk section in real-time wheel chair and all...)

And up again to Pinwheel Vista (Stairway  to Heaven)
 

 Wawayanda Mountain

And the Overlook

What a perfect day for this climb!

On to Iron Mountain

 Past another abandoned iron  furnace

 and the Wawayanda Shelter

Which is also closed at this time.

To Long House Creek

Bringing us only 1 mile from today's destination

The New Jersey~New York State Line

Where we will stop for today.

It is 74 degrees now...but the White Blaze App. says low 60's tonight. Got to get serious about warmer gear. The leaves are changing quickly now, and some have already dropped.

We are 1362 miles in with only 828 miles of the AT left to go!

We're going to DO this!

Getting my breath from today's hike and maybe just simple Mac and Cheese tonight.

More down the trail.

Love,

"Beans"
