Hike @ North Boundary Trail, Day 2

Pretty much a repeat of yesterday, that was the plan. See how my body handled back-to-back days of 10 miles. I hiked the same route as I did yesterday.  Pack was 16lbs again, and I felt pretty good.  I did take 1 Vitamin I at the beginning and 1 half way thru.  Finshed today with 10.3 miles, and 4 min faster than yesterday.  4 hrs 4 min, avg 2.5 mph again.
