Day 54- Franconia Notch to Garfield Mountain. 10 miles.

Hmmm....maybe eating too many good foods threw my stomach off because I woke up multiple times in the night with my stomach just twisting in pain. I managed to sleep some, but still didn't feel too perky in the morning. Nevertheless, we caught a shuttle from Chet's to the trailhead and I just started hiking up a mountain. Most of the day was a climb and I was rewarded with absolutely beautiful views. The weather was amazing again and the view from the top of Mt. Lafayette was especially gorgeous. At the end up the day, we sat up on top of Mt. Garfield and watched the sun set. This was the most beautiful view of my life. I was about 5,000 ft up, able to see everything in every direction and just watched the sun set. I can't even describe how magnificent it was- I would not be able to do it justice. The night is a windy night with the tent flapping loudly against the sides, but I'm so tired that I'm willing to bet that I'll fall asleep quickly.
