Pinchot Trail
31k for 31 years + a few extra Ks for good luck.
Slower than I was hoping for, but it was also much rockier and muddier than I expected. There were also a few sections along Choke Creek that were almost completely flooded out by some busy beavers.
Felt strong until two hours, and then the hiatus from long trail runs became apparent. Still, a good day all things considered and managed to snag the FKT.
Got to see lots of good orienteering terrain and lots of horrible orienteering terrain. The most interesting spot was when I went from dense beech forest to spruce-hemlock forest that reminded me more of the Yukon and Sweden than PA. Will investigate.
