Day 130 - 8th August - Kid Shelter - Winhall River - 17.1 miles

Today we reach the exact three quarter point of the hike at 1632 .8 miles. We climb Stratton Mountain today - 2,000 ft climb - we pound up the trail - very fit and fast. We meet daytrippers who have come across from the ski village by gondola. We see our first "moose poo".

We join Scatters, Stucco, Boss, Miles, and the two girls - Powerpak and Deetz - in a stealth camp by a swinging bridge over the river. We wash our clothes and bodies
in the river - a great treat.
