Day 121 - 30th July - Belters campsite - Salisbury - Riga Leanto - 14.6 miles

Before we leave we chat to the large group of women - over 20 of them. They meet up each year and do 'a bit' of the AT.

There is long reroute of the trail to detour around the roadworks on a bridge. Maybe an extra 3 miles to our day so we are not impressed, but we enjoy the road walk through these old farm properties to the hydro stationa based at the waterfall.

There is a fast climb over a mountain into the cute village of Salisbury for lunch. We stop at a trendy tea house called 'Chiawalla' and invite Itinerary to join us - our shout. In town at the grocery we meet Kim and Laura and Clare the dog. We restock and Digby tracks down stove fuel from the auto electrician across the road.

We climb out of town to the northern outlook view of Mt Graylock in Vermont in the distance. We camp on a platform at the campsite.
