Day 85: Stealth Site-Galehead Hut to Webster Cliffs (16.5 miles)

August 5, 2004 - Still having stomach problems, hope it doesn’t last too much longer. Got breakfast from the hut then took off for the Twin Mountains. After the Twins it was an easy hike down to Zealand Falls Hut where I ate lunch. Then on to Crawford Notch for the night, which is what I planned on. The hike from Zealand to Crawford was so flat that I got to Crawford early so decided to move on to Webster Cliffs. It was a hard climb up 2000 feet over less than 2 miles. Glad I moved on because there was the most beautiful view from the cliffs, where I would have seen a great sunset had I not fallen sleeping while waiting for the sun to set. I did get a good picture of the view before I fell asleep. A good 16.5 miles for the day, stomach getting better.
