21.7 miles. "The Barn"--Overmountain Shelter.
Foggy, windy, rainy, beautiful day. Climbed Roan today and it was amazing. I also ran into 4 other thru-hikers which was wonderful. This shelter is great too...fully enclosed so no wind! The valley was beautiful as well, you can actually see the fog rise and fall in it as the wind pushes and pulls the storm around. I won't lie this isn't the first time I've spent the night in the loft of a barn so I'm looking forward to a good night's sleep. Later.

My name is Cody Zurhellen and I am 23 years old. Last season 3 close friends of mine hiked the Appalachian Trail and initially I had planned to hike with them. However, for a number of reasons I decided to stay home and work. After hiking the New Jersey section with them I knew that I had missed out on a huge opportunity. So I decided on the drive home that I would undertake the trip the following season. Well, here we are...and its time for me to start out.
