| Quads sore from yesterday's climb. Did much flatter hike today. AT from Abol Bridge to Daicy Pond then back on Lost Pond and Foss and Knowlton Pond trails. Amazing water falls on Abol Brook and loons diving for food in F&K Pond. Plenty of moose sign but no sightings. Plenty of wild blueberries for the picking. Ed was worried about bears. |

| Early AM in thick fog. Stopped to watch two foxes on neighbors front lawn. They didn't have a healthy fear of humans yet or maybe they didn't recognize me as a threat with helmet and wheels. Need to adjust derailleur and install safety strobe before next early morning ride. |
