Rob "Bigby" called at around 10 and left the message that they had just peaked Clingman's Dome, at 6643feet the highest point on the AT! Rob's message: "It's beautiful, it's an awesome day and the hike was just awesome - so great!" He's feeling good and heading another 10 miles to tonight's shelter, after spending last night (Friday) at Silers Bald Shelter. The shelters in Great Smoky Mountain National Park are impressive (and built to keep hikers separated from bears!) And today, Mom K mailed off his second food drop (to Hot Springs, NC.) I still haven't gotten the hang of these food drops - the box weighed 18 pounds...can't get away from the idea that too much is better than too little!
