Great day: ate wild cherry & blackberry; saw a momma bear with cub. Now resting in Daleville, VA

• That's insane. How close was it? Did it see you?

I wish every AT road crossing had a nearby convenience store... that you can tent behind. (699mi) (@ Catawba Valley General Store)

• It was hobbling away from a shelter as I walked up. Its paw was injured. It turned and looked back at us a few times before disapearing into the woods

• I can't believe how many miles you have gone! How's the Koopster doing,

Hiked/ran/hopped the ~10 miles to Pearisburg in just over two hours. No-pack: the only way to fly.

3696 Sugar Run Road, Pearisburg, VA, United States

• It actually looks kinda cozy.

The downside to being first on the trail in the morning is that you get to walk through all the spider webs. 602mi

• Not so cozy
