April 17, 200+ Milestone and High Point

Today I broke through the 200 mile mark. That's another significant milestone to reach. I also reached the highest point on the AT at 6,643'. That point is Clingman's Dome and it is located in the Smokeys. The hike up wasn't extremely hard. Unfortunately, appropriate to the Smokeys namesake, the Dome was cloaked in mist and I couldn't see anything. On top of that the wind was blowing and it was chilly. I waited for about 30 minutes for it to clear but finally gave up and hiked on.
