SNP day 5

Nice walking in the morning today, sun and cool breeze despite forecasted showers. Nice sloping ridge down to Swift Gap and lunch. But then clouded up fast and cooled down, as we climbed back up high. But no rain yet as we stop early at Hightop Hut. Trail maintainer stopped by, said this shelter is notorious for mice. Gushing piped spring despite being on top of the mountain.
So on the mouse front: despite catching 2 last night before getting into our sleeping bags, I was surprised when a fat one landed on top of me much later. I flipped it toward the shelter opening but it landed short, next to Mark's head. He had to flick it out.
