one year on the AT (on repeat)

Pictures taken between March 2009 and March 2010. More frequent during seasonal transitions, and harder to get to this location in the snow. My camera was perched upon a gate post with a paint chip marking the centerline.

I was surprised to see only two hikers while taking my routine pictures. Although, it is understandable, as most thru-hikers do stay at the Doyle (6 miles south). A 4:30 occurrence would mean one of two scenarios: A. hangover or B. not a thru-hiker... Choice A would also constitute not being a thru-hiker because the metabolism of a thru-hiker destroys those toxins. Otherwise the hiker would be a yellowblazer with a weak metabolism.
