About an hour ago, the summer solstice come and gone. The sun is turning south. From now on, each day will get shorter, racing to the fall and winter hiking season.
It’s time to get ready. Plan and order new gear. Take the squeek out old gear. Sock money in the bank for them trips starting in September to the Rockies, in October the Long Trail, then AT section hiking will pick back up. Time’s a waisting. It ain’t long now, folks.
