24 July - South Arm Road to Rt. 17

Foggy, misty, cool, and light rain most of the day.  Sun briefly came out late afternoon and it was warm and humid. High low 80s.

As you see from the weather, it was a mushroom day.

We hiked 13.3 miles starting with a 2400 foot climb up Old Blue. Mtn.   from South Arm Rd.  and ended with a steep climb down and back up to Rt. 17.  Capt. Bly's car was parked at an overlook just up from where the AT crosses  Rt. 17.  We celebrated our success while the sun set over Mooselookmeguntic lake.

It is supposed to rain tonight and tomorrow so we are planning a zero in Rangeley and Plans Too Much will take Flatlander to get his car in Unionville, NY.
