Day 135

Today started rough. For the second day in a row I have had unexpected things happen that are out of my control at the beginning of the day. Yesterday my carspot never showed up, and today I got a flat tire!!! I haven’t had a flat tire since I was a teenager. Thankfully I was able to change it quickly and head to the trail. The plan was to hike the rest of the trail that I had started yesterday. I did an out and back on Mount Cube Trail which is another part of the AT. On the way up I ran across two northbound thru-hikers! It’s really early in the season for people to already be up in The Whites so I warned them about the snow on the Carters and they were really grateful for the intel. After completing the out and back I headed back home to get my tire fixed.
