SeaPlane

Day: 170 (September 11)
Starting location: East Branch Lean-to
Ending location: Antlers Campsite
State: ME
Miles today: 16.0
Miles total: 2,127.3

The 100 mile wilderness has really been incredible. We spent most of the day walking along the shores of these huge lakes. So much of the wilderness seems so untouched since much is only accessible via hiking, boat, or seaplane. Seaplane is actually a very effective way to get around and if I ever live in Maine, I am definitely getting one.

The trail has really flattened out over the last 2 days. We actually did 16 miles today which is the most miles that we have done in a really long time. We got to Antlers Campsite around 5pm and found a spot right on the shore of Jo-Mary Lake. We cooked dinner and settled into our tent and listened to the singing loons. Loons are so loud but so peaceful all at the same time.
