🧵7/8 I’m satisfied. After Pemadumcook Lake, the Appalachian Trail crossed a logging road and followed Nahmakanta Stream for five miles. The stream was wide and scenic, presenting numerous different faces to me as I followed its meandering course. There were swift little cascades,

A hazy, white evening sky, daylight is beginning to dim. Walking a footpath about 50 feet above the bank of a wide stream. Just ahead the stream arcs to our left and forks around a low, scrub-covered island. The stream is bordered on both sides by a mixed forest of dusky green conifers and hardwoods with bright orange or gold autumn foliage. A large grove of white birch with gleaming white trunks and gold foliage is just past the island on the stream bank to our right. The current is very calm here, the surface mirroring the forest and sky much like a pond does, until the stream plunges over some modest rapids as it goes around the island.

🧵8/8 slow-moving stretches over gravel bars, and placid deadwaters. The birch trees along the banks were bursting into their autumn fires and the spruce smelled wonderful. More of My 1983 Appalachian Trail Hike in Photos at www.georgesteffanos.com/places-i-ve-...
