My seven-day, 159-mile trek along the Buckeye Trail has been completed!! It felt so good to walk into Crystal Springs and connect with the Northeast Ohio loop of the Buckeye Trail that I’ve hiked previously.

This last day was almost entirely Towpath Trail (using the remnants of an old path designed for livestock towing vessels on the Ohio & Erie Canal). Super-flat, which was nice — but also super snowy, with nobody plowing or shoveling those trails. It was a slog, especially with a new winter weather system coming through. But I made it! I was rewarded with a conversation with my friend Nicholas Humphrey on our drive from Crystal Springs to Kent — and then a Chipotle feast with Marci, Olivia, and Cor Asp 🇳🇱.

I hope to catch up on blogging over the next couple of days, to make my experiences as shareable as possible for those who are interested. But in any event, thanks for following along here and offering your encouraging comments along the way!
