June 1 - Painter Branch Shelter to Roaring Fork Shelter - 13.1 miles
Easily had the best night of sleep last night. Normally I will wake up about 15-20 times due to the new sleeping environment but last night, probably due to the 20 mile day yesterday, the ambiance of the dual streams surrounding our tent site facilitated one of the best nights of sleep thus far.
Had an outstanding lunch today on the largest bald (Max Patch Bald) today. Fantastic 360 panoramic views of countryside farms and hay bales. Definitely a lunch to remember.
Parted ways with Raven today. Raven is also an AT thru-hiker, attempting to complete the 2,178 mile endeavor over a 7-8 years, doing a few weeks at a time. He was a joy to hike with for the few days that we did and I greatly appreciate the forestry knowledge that he embarked upon us.
