| no partners | | Hiked the section of the Appalachian Trail in CT between Kent and Bulls Bridge with the Connecticut chapter of AMC. Thanks to Claire for leading the trip. The trip was postponed from the day before due to heavy rain. It was a congenial group. I'm still figuring out how to take pictures when hiking with a large group. I got a few more today than on the hike earlier in the week. There were a few viewpoints, a couple of flowers, and probably the high point was the clear black bear prints. |

Wildflowers Observation Isolated There were a couple Pink Lady's Slippers along the way. On the south facing slope near the end of the hike were a few other flowers. |
