Walking North - Unfinished Business - Part 8 (HD)

May 2016, nine months since my last hike on the Long Trail. In August of 2015 I suffered the second injury to my right knee and wasn't able to complete my goal of hiking all 272 miles in 2015. I have some unfinished business on the Long Trail.
Join Jon / Data / Recon and I as we take off from the Winooski River area and Walk North towards Sterling Pond by way of Mount Mansfield. We experience some unseasonably high temperatures, both day and night.

    Another great video, Rob. All I have to say is, Harrington's View and Puffer Shelter's views - Awesome, Bolton's Summit -- not so much. Can't wait for the next video.
