Dayton and 100 - Day 39

  OK, so I photoshopped this sign a tiny bit, but I had to come up with something that had 100 on it. Today, I completed 2022 Hike 100 NCT Challenge!

Completed all of Dayton today. Last time I hiked this was in 1999. The route was roughly the same, but now it's almost all paved bicycle path. I entered Triangle Park across a large suspension bridge.

The Dayton skyline appears soon after.

Right downtown the trail goes, across the Mad River on a beautiful new pedestrian bridge

Then the trail follows the Mad River upstream,

passing right in front of the National Air Force Museum.

Then it goes near the Wright Brothers Memorial.

Long hiking day, and then we visited with our hosts, Amy and Brent Anslinger- hikers and adventurers in their own right. Late blog post. Will be late going to bed, but all worth it. Good times.

Sorry about the dates on the photos- hopefully I can get rid of them tomorrow.

Miles today 17.8. Total miles so far: 567.8

See Lunch at Tadmor
