Pine Mountain Trail - Day 3

After my unexpected ground sleeping, I was happy to only have 5.5 miles back to my car. I left early in the morning to get it over with. The only noteworthy event was a unexpected, uncontrolled lunge landing on my left knee caused by my right foot slipping on the gravel. After a few angry words to myself, I was able to walk it off back to my car. On my way home, I stopped at the FedEx Store to get my new trail runners (irony not lost after slipping with inadequate traction earlier in the day). I am very glad I made it out early in the morning, as big storms rolled through later in the day. Overall it was 38.6 good miles over 3 days and I have completed all but 4 miles of the trail. I will certainly be headed out there again soon.
