| Bear Fence Shelter |
I woke up early this morning and Rick soon followed. I finished reading "Serpico" in the meantime. Had breakfast and left around 8:30.

| Not a deer - but interesting, anyway. |
Heavy dew this morning. Walking wasn't easy with my toe bothering me [I had stubbed my little toe yesterday at the shelter]. We came across a deer grazing right next to the trail. It didn't move until we were right next to it, and even then it didn't run away, just hopped a few feet away and kept right on grazing, while we got cameras out and took pictures.

| South River Waterfall |
Stopped at a shelter for lunch. Afterwards we split up. I went down to the South River waterfall, doing an extra 3.7 miles, round-trip. Great falls. Rick went on along the AT. I got to the shelter at 6PM, he got there at 4:30. As I was approaching the Lewis Mountain Campground shortly before Bear Fence Shelter, I scared a guy who had been out gathering fire wood. He was walking along the trail in front of me carrying a hatchet and an armload of wood. I guess he heard me walking up behind him and turned with the hatchet ready to attack. Must have thought I was a bear or something.
