Jack called recently to update: It took about 16 hours but Jack has now recovered from his stomach bug. Cause may be the water filtration system. Chris now has same bad bug as of Tuesday early afternoon.

They hiked 26.4 miles yesterday. They have hiked 10 miles today. Due to this current illness they will have to find the nearest shelter, possibly Overmountain shelter.

The views from Google Map are beautiful. They have moved on, but you can get an idea of some of the beauty of their surroundings and enjoy them by googling google maps and typing in coordinates N36 6.371 W32 6.634. It is wonderful to see the views.
