Day 150: Rainy night

Day: 150 Miles: 13 Trip: 1986.5 Started: Reddington Campsite  Destination: 1986.5

We got a nice early start with the goal of making about 17 miles today.  The morning started out pretty overcast but by about 8:30 the starting to come out.  On top of Saddleback Junior we actually got a pretty good view.  Later as we passed over Lone Mt and clouds started to roll in and thing were looking bad.  Just passed the plaque that commemorates the completion of the AT in 1937 thunder started to break out all around us.  Up on the Sugerloaf Mountain ridge we decided to find the first available spot to camp.  Just as the rain broke out we set up our tents for a long night in the rain.  I managed to get my tent set up while staying mostly dry and settled in for a good nights rest in the rain.  I like tenting in the rain, just not setting up or breaking down in it!
