2006-06-10 Hiking and Camping at Cohutta Wilderness

This was my first wildnerness hike wearing Nike Free shoes. These shoes make you feel one with land and water. A friend from work and I hiked about 12 miles over two days. The second day of the hike included 21 crossings of the Jacks River in addition to several small streams. Despite the 30-pound backpack througout, the shoes felt comfortable dry or wet, on land or in water.

    Harald was attacked by a wasp here the first day. He said the sting hurt a lot. The next day I received six wasp stings including the first one on my forehead while crossing the river on slippery rocks at the same spot. Yes, the stings hurt a lot. I didn't want my camera, wallet or phone in the water, so I had to land with my knee on a rock and scramble out of the water. I didn't even notice my knee hurting thanks to pain from the 6 wasp stings.
