Happy Father's Day to all those dads out there!
The ladies are trekking along and doing great! We will be approaching the Roanoke area
soon while dodging the constant raindrops that have been falling for the last several weeks. Getting a bit warmer out there as well. Southern VA hikers are finding the water sources beginning to dry up causing them to carry a bit more while hiking. We have been running into many little critters, too! So beautiful and cute!

The ladies are still moving strong as they enjoy some sunshine that finally stuck around. The days are getting warmer and the nights are bit more tolerable as we head closer to the Roanoke area. Time to make up some miles!

Every year there is a runner who tries to beat the fastest time running the entire AT. The current record is held by a young lady named Tara, whom we all met at Trail Days. This feat is not for amateurs. The fastest time at the moment is roughly 40 days. 40 DAYS folks to run the entire ~2200 miles! They have to "run" roughly 55 miles a day, every day to beat the record. Not my thing, but kudos to those that attempt.
While waiting at a trailhead for the ladies, I caught the latest person who is trying to beat the record arriving at his support station for a short break. Food, drink, a 15 min rest to stretch, and he was off again. Good luck!

The ladies made it through the park safely and were on their way. More rain in the forecast, so the ladies made double time in the hopes of reaching a shelter before it hit.
With all the rain, the flowers and vegetation are all making themselves known. Beautiful.

It's a beautiful thing to watch the wild horses come up the trail and walk by you without a care in the world. So beautiful and amazing.

The best part of leaving Damascus is the hike up Whitetop, passing Mt Rogers (highest Mt in VA), and hiking with wild ponies through Grayson Highlands SP. We all got lucky with the weather as the rain held up enough to enjoy the horses and views.

Leaving Damascus behind, the ladies headed out into the fog and were on their way to Whitetop Mt. Lots of storm damage everywhere, but it's wonderful to see things slowly coming back.

A little trail magic hits the spot as the ladies headed into Damascus, VA. Another state down!

The ladies made it over the Humps and down to 19E for a break at Mountain Harbour Bnb and Hostel. This hostel was wiped away by last year's storm. It's been a long recovery and they are still building, but at least they are open to host hikers and feed them. A wonderful place to stay for a break!
After a nice hefty breakfast, the ladies were off once again. Next stop on the journey was Boots Off Hostel. Another place with a wonderful reputation.

The day started off wonderfully, with clear skies and warm weather. After the grassy balds and the split, the ladies headed off to Overmountain shelter (just a campsite now), for the night. I promised them amazing views from the campsite if the weather cooperated, which thankfully, it did. They had a wonderful night at camp, but alas, had to move on the next day. Windy as heck, they had a long period of miles in the open skies and had to deal with spitting rain and high winds over the balds to finally get to 19E. Wahoo!

So much beauty! It's why it's one of my favorite short sections to hike in the south. The AT lives up to the hype here! A must-visit if anywhere in the area.
