Mile 100!!

The first hundred miles are now past them. I would bet that first 100 is probably as tough as the last 100 will be. They didn't even take a selfie!! I'm still working on their photography and videography skills. We have to be patient with them. They also saw Albert Fire Tower today which is a fairly well-known point, but they didn't take a picture. :( As you'll see in the video, they did have an eventful day.

They both received trail names today! Traditionally a trail name is given to a thru hiker by another thru hiker. You can accept the name or not accept it. I believe more recently hikers have been giving themselves their trail name but that's just not as fun to me. Watch the video to the end and you'll hear the stories of both of their trail names. 

However, Gavin has strictly forbidden people at home to call him his trail name. He said it's only for while he's on the trail. His name is Gavin.
