Antietam Shelter to Pen Mar County Park – 7.4 miles
April 20th, 2017
The final miles of PA! It felt great to finally be finishing my third state, and the longest one I had done yet. 229 miles in PA and I hiked them all! Passed the Deer Lick Shelters which were as impressive as the ones I mentioned yesterday. I’d go as far as to say that all the shelters in the Michaux State Forest are exceptional. The hike was uneventful…rocks, trees, boulders… a barking dog, smiling faces, and then… MARYLAND!! Just three tenths of a mile before I arrived at Pen Mar Park was the beautiful sign I’d waited years to lay eyes on! We embraced like old friends and shared some sweet kisses, and then like I always do… I turned my back and walked to my car and drove home.
