Will it Ever Stop Snowing?

This marks my third day in Franklin NC. The snow and cold temps continue. Some hikers left for the trail yesterday only to return last night. They report deep snow and drifting, high winds and bitter cold. The weather forecast looks much improved for Wednesday and into the weekend. The hikers I talked to are ready to hit the trail in the morning. I would guess there 50 to 75 hikers in town. This may cause some congestion at the shelters. But no other real options. If I stay in town much longer I will need to do laundry again. In keeping with the spirit of adventure I think I will scout out a barber shop this afternoon. Just hope I don't turn out looking like a Marine Corps recruit. Semper Fi!
