AT Photo Update: Trail Days and the Roan Highlands

by Ashli

It has been a while since I have posted an update, and there is so much to talk about!

To start off, on the weekend of May 17th we headed up to Trail Days! It’s the biggest festival celebrating the trail, and it is held in Damascus, VA. Mac had to head back to PA for a wedding, but Andrew was able to join me for the weekend. Here are some pictures from the festival.

After the festival, Mac returned and we headed to Erwin, TN where we had left off. After a few days on the trail Mac and I stopped at a hostel/B&B called Mountain Harbor B&B. We had heard good things about the breakfast that the owner makes every morning so we decided to check it out.

This turned out to be a great decision. This was one of the best meals I have ever sat down to. Homemade jam, apple butter, and everything else you could think of, made completely from scratch. That thing in a corn husk isn’t corn, it’s a cornmeal tamale cooked inside of the husk. Amazing.

Over the last week and a half we have hiked over 100 miles and we are quickly approaching mile 500. Here are some pictures from the last few days.
