On the Poto: Cindy, Janet, me, Pete, Nathan.

Another Day on the Poto

Potowatami Trail, 17.5 miles

Did the same route as on 25 September, this time with Janet, Cindy, Jay, Pete, and Nathan. It was a perfect hiking day -- clear and sunny, mid-fifties. Was really proud of Nathan -- it's a very long way for a 13-year-old! He and Pete took a shortcut near the end that shaved off about three miles, but still -- Nate was definitely the hero of the day. Janet made him a Boston cooler when we got home, and I made him a huge pot of rice!

Since traveling in a group slows you down, it took us 5:48 (net hike time) to complete the trail. It was starting to get dark by the time we finished. Maybe Jay and I will do this hike again in the winter or spring. I wouldn't mind making this an annual thing...
