I did a spur of the moment hike yesterday. Started with a cruise of the Blue Ridge Parkway. When I got to Reids' Gap a strange force took over over the jeep and I ended up at Devils' Backbone. What the?
Saw about half dozen thrus drinking the golden beverage at DB. A cold beer later I was back in the jeep pointed up the mountain. I packed in two 16 oz PBRs in ice. :-). Maupin Field Shelter had quite a crowd of thrus, weekender doing the loop and overnighters like me. I found a semi secluded spot just north of the main area near three other hikers. Set up my tarp and popped the the top on a PBR. Suddenly three heads poked up over tents like ground hogs at the sound of that beer opening. Sorry guys, no sharing tonight.
Had a great time sitting around the campfire. A T-storm or two went right around us. Got up at 6 and headed for MickeyDs.
