Day 22: Mother Nature

March 8th

Current Location: Mile 189.3, Derrick Knob Shelter, GSMNP

The AT giveth and the AT taketh.  Today the AT gave me sunny skies and 65 degree temperatures.  Unfortunately I am still carrying -20 degree gloves.  At least I won't be freezing to death. There's very little snow or ice in this section of the AT.  A normal day on the AT filled with ups and downs.
