The guys around camp are loving the cool weather and are trail running like crazy, the trail crew is doing an amazing job on Alum, and we're all enjoying getting to know the people hiking up!
Best wishes to the lady finishing the AT in honor of her father, you have an amazing story and it was a pleasure getting to know you and your mother.
Remember to pack for layers, it is really getting chilly at night.
Alum Cave is open tomorrow through Sunday but there is another rod run this weekend so the earlier you get to the trailhead the better!
