Appalachian Trail To Wind Gap, Pennsylvania

Today we hiked 6 miles from the Katellen Trail to Wind Gap along the Appalachian Trail. It was a clear and slightly cool day, absolutely perfect weather for hiking. I had the pleasure of introducing my friend from Connecticut to Pennsylvania's lovely, ankle strengthening, rocky trails!


We hiked .9 miles up the Katellen Trail. Now we were ready to hike along the ridge to Wind Gap. We had beautiful outlooks on both sides of the ridge.
 

 First of many beautiful outlooks


I saw a lot of mushrooms on the trail, evidence of the wet weather we've had lately.


More interesting fungus...


Another overlook


Clear skies and late Summer weather


Back at the trail head in Wind Gap!

Anne, I meant to add, isn't the cooler weather nice to finally get here for being outdoors? Art
