Day 19. Zero Day - Fontana Lodge Again...

The weather has cleared and I will enter the smokies tomorrow with How Bout. His resupply box never made it so I will share my supplies with him and push on in the morning. We plan to be on the trail at o dark 30... 11 plus miles to the first shelter. About half of the thru hikers left the lodge today to stay overnight at the Fontana Hilton Shelter. Two more arrived today.

I'm looking forward to getting on the trail tomorrow. I'm starting to get cabin fever... The snow is melting at a pretty fast pace here today so tomorrows climb should be ok.
