We've covered a lot of ground to get here and are now in Monson, ready to hit the 100 Mile Wilderness.

The path here hasn't always been straight (or even northbound), yet we've covered every mile and have longed for these final days. There is something almost surreal about what we're about to do, as climbing Katahdin wasn't really at the forefront of our minds six months ago. But we're here and ready for it.

Hopefully, that will inspire others to follow us down this whimsical path.
