Woke up early and tackled Mount Garfield before the sun rose above the ridge. Although rocky at times, the trail was kind to us today.
Stopped for lunch atop South Twin Mountain with majestic 360-degree views. I also got a halfway decent signal to call Merrell's customer service number. My new shoes are separating. Fortunately, Merrell has a one-time replacement for thru-hikers.
We continued along the Zeacliff Ridge, then dropped down to the Zeacliff Falls Hut. We actually got to the side trail at 3:30 p.m. but lingered for thirty minutes before approaching the hut.
At tinge after four, we went into the hut and talked to "Kroo" member Kayla about a work-for-stay. She was happy to have us, and after washing dishes for 45 minutes, we had an awesome (leftover) dinner of lasagna, soup and chocolate sour dough cake. We are joined by NOBO buddy Cliff Note, and SOBO Chicory.
