Report

Caribou-Speckled was beautiful, surprisingly runnable, and only mildly boggy in spots. Only fell into a river once! Don't try to river-rock-hop while eating cheeseIts and checking your phone (or if you do, just be better at it than me).

Ran an extra 0.1 miles to make the strava activity >30mi. GPX track has this last small section cut out (thus it's 1.5min shorter).

Did this solo, with no resupplies. Filled up water twice from streams. Last two hours were really fun; realized that if I pushed, I could make the entire thing in sub-8hrs. Quite runnable terrain for New England, and nice to just be out alone in the woods for a day.

This time is definitely beatable. Spent the first 6hrs zoning out, enjoying life, and hoping to see moose (saw one!).
