Back in those days, EVERYBODY waded the Kennebec. Since getting to the river as early in the morning as possible was important, a of hikers would have stayed at the Pierce Pond shelter anyway. The Carrying Place was just an added perk. Now with the crossing by canoe pretty much required by all the Powers That Be, arrival time at the river might not be that important. I will know more as I get closer.
All my resupply stops will be at local grocery stores. The only mail drop I have in Maine is Monson and the only thing in it is three AAA batteries for my headlamp. I might have to do a little night hiking to get the needed daily mileage. I ain"t as fast as I used to be.
