Day 3, First day in wilderness

July 16
26.3 down, 2159.6 to go
Started into the 100 mile wilderness. Picked up mosquito nets for the top half of our body before starting hike, best $18 we've ever spent. Good hike up to Rainbow Ledges Rock, great view of Katahdin...beautiful. Quite a climb though! A tree fell in the woods, and we heard it! Ha ha. Made it to Rainbow Lake Campsite in time to see a beautiful sunset over the lake. A loon attempted to take off from the water went about 60 yards before deciding to stay on the water, right at sunset. A beautiful way to end the day. A guy we met suggested we stay at Antlers Campsite in two days.
