More mud than I was expecting, but the views have been soul-captivating with all the colors changing everywhere!

I won't lie, once I got on the road walk, my hip flexors on both legs were in a world of hurt! I averaged a 2.8 mph walking pace on trail, but on the road I was at 1.5 after a while. The struggle was real...

I am fine and look forward to my next Backpacking Adventure.... May come sooner than you think!
