Rockstar Trail 270 - Day 3 to Finish
Hello! And welcome back! Day 3 of the Rockstar started from Douthet State Park, around 8:30am. I guess we "slept in" a bit, as it seemed rather cold outside. I climbed out of my rainfly-sauna-cocoon only to find that my jersey and chamois shorts were still soaking wet from where I washed them in the lukewarm shiver shower the night before...excellent, thanks humidity. I tried to dry them in that ancient heater box in the shower but that just warmed up the wetness, which is better than nothing, I suppose. I piddled and packed and snacked on a brownie with some jimmies on it, another half of a cold CBR with pieces of wax paper wrapper stuck to it and forced myself to drink a liter of water before leaving camp. And then we rolled out headed for about an hour climb ,up a trail named Stoney Run, out of the park. Once we were near the top of Stoney Run, we had a quick out and back to the Tuscarora Overlook Cabin, where the mosquitos tried to carry me away. A couple of quick pics...
