Journal Entry

I did this all the first few days I was home.. haven't been on my computer at all since then, but here's what I found.

On my phone, I kept track of every extra tenth of a mile I hiked since day 1. I only counted mileage hiked with my pack and boots on. There was certainly some walking around towns that I didn't count with just my camp shoes and no pack. Some days I didn't do any extra hiking like when I camped on the side of the trail and when shelters were directly on the trail. Other days I did several miles of extra walking when I decided to take a side trail or had to walk into or out of a town.

Total mileage hiked: 2,259.1
Which makes for a total of almost 70 miles of extra hiking.

I've attached a picture of the graph of my daily mileage. I deleted the zeroes and a few of the short neros because it was a little too noisy with them in there.
You can see my mileage decrease as I enter The Whites and southern Maine, then increase again as I start heading south.

Merry Christmas to all!
