Unsupported NH-48 thru hike in 6 days, 7 hours, 3 minutes. 

Apparently I wasn't moving fast enough for Strava to detect movement; it has my moving time as 9h 1m. As a result, the pace it calculated is absurdly wrong. My actual moving time was about 124 hours. Strava also underestimated the distance, probably because my watch was set to track only once per minute. The distance I calculated from my maps was 256 miles. That puts my pace at 29 minutes per mile (2.1 miles per hour).

A highlight of the hike was meeting Andrew Drummond and then Philip Carcia on the trail. Andrew completed a Direttissima hike three years ago, and Philip was about 15 miles from completing his second Direttissima hike as the finale of his calendar year grid. It was great fun to meet these veterans. Both offered lots of encouragement and support. 

I also met Jason Lantz when he was about 8 miles from completing his Direttissima hike, although I didn't know it was him at the time. I ran into him again, however, on the Presidentials two days later. He was out hiking in the Presidentials two days after completing his Direttissima! Given that only about a dozen people have completed a Direttissima hike, it was incredible that three of us were out there hiking it at the same time. 

Many thanks to Andrew Drummond for the incredible photos.
