The White House
by Thomas Larkin on 07/03/13Sunday, June 23, 2013:
It is supposed to rain and add to the already wet conditions. According to my guidebook there is a primitive, off the grid hostel about a mile off the trail. I scale Nesuntabunt Mtn and slosh through 11 miles of more roots, rocks and mud until I come to the sidetrack to White House Landing. After a mile of primitive trail, I arrive at a boat dock with a sign instructing me to call a boat using an air horn. A few minutes later a man arrives and ferries me to a cabin with 4 bedrooms. I shower and shave in the bathhouse, wash my clothes in a washtub and hang them out to dry. Later a college professor from Kalamazoo and his daughter arrive. We eat 1 lb Bergerac for dinner and turn in to sleep in nice dry comfortable beds. Breakfast of eggs and pancakes is at 7:00 am and we are off to the trail once again.
