Hiking the AT/Lehigh Gap to Wind Gap


Had a weekend to ourselves and decided to do a nice two day hike on the AT. We started at Lehigh Gap and hiked up the surprisingly steep hill/mountain. After that it was about 4 hours of hiking before we set up camp. The hiking was decent but pretty typical of Pennsylvania, meaning that it was rarely flat ground, mostly stepping on rocks the whole way. 
The second day wasn't bad at all, I was able to get us some tea going. The hiking was nice and relaxing , although the fog was very heavy. 

After we finished our hike, we started walking back on the road trying to catch a ride, hitchhike style. I'd say it took about 30 mins but we did catch a ride with a guy named Dan. He ended up being from the Denver area that we rode through on our trip and  he knew all the other places we went to. 

Good experience.
