Passing storm sunset, Scoville Reservoir, Wolcott, Connecticut. July 14, 2021, 8:33 PM. Well, that was close. Now enjoy the sunset.

40 years ago today: The Appalachian Trail went into Dark Entry Ravine, ascending through the perpetual twilight silence of an old hemlock forest. Long years of decomposing fallen needles had buried the boulder-strewn ground and transformed it into a soft, lumpy carpet. It was lovely, even though the stream was barely running.

40 years ago today: It was still cloudy this morning when I woke up, and the air had turned even chillier. I had not seen a morning that cold since Tennessee. After the persistent heat wave that dogged me through six states from Virginia through New York, shivering was a pleasure. Still, in order to warm up, I really had to start moving quickly when I hit the trail.

40 years ago today: Macedonia Brook abounded in tough climbs. The rocky trail off Cobble Mountain descended very steeply over boulders sheathed with slick, dripping moss. There were more nice views a mile later, from the top of Pine Hill. The entire state park was beautiful, one of the nicest stretches on the since Shenandoah National Park in Virginia.

I miss dialogue bubbles in Trails games, they get rid of it in replaced with banner like block at the bottom of the screen
Also, when approached a NPC, a Talk bubble will appear, it will grey out if youve talked to them, some of them you may need to talk to more than twice and their dialogue would be different. I spent hours talking to them until no ones left
Problem is, it will not be indicated on the mini map, not until Kuro

40 years ago today: The open, grassy crest of Cobble Mountain looked just as lovely today as the image which had lingered in my memory. Encircling the summit was a sprawling, rocky meadow with extensive views to the north and west. The mountain overlooked a lush, green valley filled with forests and pastures in the foothills of eastern New York State.

40 years ago today: The first few miles of Connecticut trail were on typically rough New England trail, but there were good views through the rain from some ledges called Indian Rocks and from the summit of Mount Algo.

40 years ago today: The first mile of the days hike was on a forest path. Swarms of biting deer flies harassed me relentlessly during that stretch. It was a relief to come out on the beginning of a three-mile roadwalk and leave the little bastards behind me, but the escape was only temporary.

40 years ago today: 40 years ago today: We did not leave her house until 6:00, and we still had eight more miles to go in order to reach the side trail to the shelter, and another half-mile on the side trail. About two hours of daylight remained. At the house, we learned that it was supposed to rain tonight, so we were determined to make it.

My little dude Myles used to be the best hiking buddy. Hes 14 years old now and because we now live in a desert state, theres no more hiking for him. But I love to look at old photos of our hikes and I miss those trails.

40 years ago today: I left the Brien Shelter at 6:00. It had taken me an hour to regroup psychologically more than physically. All day, I had been driving this out-of-shape body towards a single goal: that shelter. Then, I discovered I had to push it farther to water that probably did not exist. It was a somewhat discouraging prospect. A more immediate physical hurdle

'Hope has holes in its pockets, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs we can always follow' - so true to my own experience and I love this so much.

40 years ago today: It is 9:00 P.M. Crazy and I have our tents pitched next to a busy road known as the Old Orange Turnpike. With all the traffic and the racket coming from a nearby rifle range, it is not an ideal spot for sleep.
