After having a wonderful continental breakfast and enjoying the room for just a little bit longer we split a taxi ride with Count and Lavender back to the trail. I was in a very low mood this morning. The thought of going back out into that crappy, cold weather was just tortuous to me. But after hiking 5 or 6 miles I started to find my groove again. Me and Tric ran into 2 Cubs and a momma black bear! It was part adorable, part scary, and part exciting. After that I hiked with a new friend named Iso until I came to a road crossing that led into Unionville. Since I knew Tric was still about 30 minutes behind me I decided to walk into town and get a slice of pizza. At the pizza parlor I had 2 slices and a root beer. I also ran into "our friends" and Turbo again. After eating I grabbed a coke for Tric and hurried back to meet her at the trailhead. She very much appreciated the coke. The next 5 miles of trail to the shelter was roadwalk, a big circle around a lake, and a very interesting boardwalk. After that we hiked part ways up Pochuck Mtn and found "our friends" again where we decided to camp with them for the night.
