Appalachian Trail Days 30-35: NYC Skyline and Rock Climbing - The Trek
Briefly

Today was quite challenging. Trail is very rough. A slow day, but finished 16.6 miles and 3,750 elevation gain in 11 hours!
Woke up to the most incredible 5:30am view of the blazing sun reflecting against the New York City skyscrapers.
Made it to the West Mountain Shelter, from which you can see the New York City Skyline. I considered hiking farther past the shelter and setting up my tent, but decided not to.
