Day 16, Monday March 15, 2021


Zero Day (no AT miles hiked today).  We spent the day at the Fontana Hilton.  First thing in the morning we took the Fontana Resort shuttle to the Pit Stop (basically a gas station) for a resupply.  They had standard hiker food there (tuna, ramen, rice sides, energy bars, etc.). We also had a couple of breakfast sandwiches and chocolate milk before heading back to our camp.
 




We were able to shower, hand wash some laundry, recharge electronics at their solar charging station, and just spend the day mostly off our feet.  Rick will need to take it slow for a few days to make sure he doesn’t cause any damage to his sore foot.  

Early dinner and to bed.  Tomorrow we enter the Smokies.

Until next time...
