Day 90: Boiling Springs to Mt Holly Springs

Today's Miles: 8.8
Total Miles: 1078.8

It was another short and wet day today. What was supposed to be only a half inch of rain turned into 8 inches. Everything is flooding, and I often found myself wading through ankle deep water. The creeks are all rising and turning into rivers. 

I passed Center Point Knob, the original midpoint of the AT, and had to make my way past what is referred to as the Rock Maze. It's just another crazy rock formation, and it wasn't the most fun when it was wet. There were a few ups and downs, and the trail was a stream in a few areas. It was gross and miserable, and I have a whole new set of blisters from walking in wet shoes. I ended the day early, wet and annoyed, but glad to be somewhere dry. I hope this will be the last of the rain for a little while.
