Day Eleven: The Three Sisters

This morning, we started our day amongst the mosquitoes, once again. We quickly are breakfast and zoomed back onto the trail. A mile into our hike, we bumped into the Belgian who helped us find an alternate route that helped us avoid the snow on the South Sister. We continued to cross paths with the Belgian throughout the day, which was helpful and entertaining. We camped nine miles from the highway, and we're looking forward to showers tomorrow.
