On the first weekend of fall we reach the end of our thru-hike - Mt. Katahdin, Maine. It's hard to believe everything we overcame and persevered through to reach this point; sickness and separation, mosquitos and mice, injury and inclement weather, mountains and mud. How did we get this far? One step at a time, over and over and over again. Only one more mountain to climb, with our dearest hiking friends and companions, and we'll be finished this monumental family adventure.
