Tenting by Orbeton Stream
1960.5 miles

The following is the register entry I left at the Poplar Ridge lean-to today:

Well it's one, two, three
What are we hiking for?
Don't ask me - I don't give a freak.
Next stop is Baxter Peak.
And it's five, six, seven
Katahdin is our fate.
To that far-off, wooden, summit sign
Whoopie!
We're all gonna climb.
