The T955 Philmont Crew got on the Kimsey Creek trail at about 10:45 this morning. This picture is taken at the Backcountry Kiosk trailhead. From this point we hiked down through the Standing Indian campground and found the start of the Kimsey Creek Trail. The Kimsey Creek trail is a 3.7 mile trail that leaves the campground and connects to the Appalachian Trail at Deep Gap.
We are on our lunch break now at the Standing Indian Shelter on the AT. We've got about 4 more hours on the trail to our campsite tonight at Beech Gap. So far it has been a tough hike.....atleast for me.
The elevation at Standing Indian campground is 3,880 ft and it is 5,498 at Standing Indian Mountain. So about 1,600 ft of elevation change today, which is quite a lot.
