Tom and Ben are at Nantahala Outdoor Center (NOC) in Wesser, NC. Here the AT crosses a pedestrian bridge over the Nantahala River. They took some time to ice their legs in the river to help some of the swelling in one of Ben's knees and to just ice their aching feet and joints! Tonight they are camping with some fellow hikers in a rented cabin.
Here's a pic that Tom sent today of Ben(on left) and another hiker named "Tortoise".
One home-schooled young man from Delaware thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail (AT) in 2011. A journey through 14 states, testing his mind, body and spirit as he experiences the beauty and wonder of the trail and the people along the way.
