Nimblewill Nomad - Odyssey 2009 - NCT - Part 21

September 3, Lake Champlain Bridge, New York to September 7, Mackinac Bridge, Michigan.

This segment begins with the Nomad standing on the lake Champlain Bridge as he crosses over from New York to Vermont. With the North Country Trail now behind him, the Nomad continues on to Vermont to hike 52 miles to connect his NCT hike to his Appalachian Trail Hikes of 1998 (northbound) and 2000 (southbound). From there the Nomad heads back to Michigan, to the Straits of Mackinac where he returns to walk the 5 miles he earlier had to ride, across the Mackinac Bridge. Labor Day is the only day of the year that pedestrians are allowed to walk across the bridge, and the Nomad timed it just right to be a part of this event.
