Looking forward to a lot of days that look like this over the next few months. Taken from the picnic area at St. Marks NWR.

Delicate Arch, or a portal to another world? Ranger Paul poses with the world’s most powerful space telescope, @NASAWebb - launching later this year! Use @NASA’s new app to bring the Webb telescope anywhere you go: https://t.co/37bpsTIa4E

Good stuff.

[Lance Armstrong @lancearmstrong]

Means the world to be riding in Mallorca with @JanUllrich5 and getting my ass kicked on the bike by him. Who says great rivals can’t be friends?!

What is your happiest memory of the Smokies?

With more people camping and digging catholes, rangers across the country have had to re-close public land because of poop. Utah even had to build a website outlining where and how to relieve yourself, because we are literally leaving our shit everywhere. https://t.co/sZ1ivUBhNh

Trail magic and milkshakes! Day 7 started out with a beautiful view from Vandeventer Shelter, along a terribly overgrown trail, and ended with trail magic and milkshakes. Make sure you watch through the end to catch a tour of the Rabbit Hole Hostel.

Day 3 & 4 - 14.7 miles
Moreland Gap Shelter to Boots Off Hostel

The highs and lows of this trip. From the beauty of Laurel Fork Gorge and Falls to the heat and humidity of Pond Mountain. Pond Mountain came close to knocking me off trail.

The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause.
