     Muskrat to Franklin North Carolina
     Before leaving Muskrat Shelter this morning, Jay and I went to see Ravins Cliffs, since the rain had stopped and the clouds were below us in the Valleys.  We took a couple of pictures and enjoyed the beautiful view of the mountains and valleys. 
     We decided on the way back to explore an area, polluted with what we thought was trash.  We thought there must be a road near by.  When we got to the site, we discovered the trash was evidence of a plane crash.  It was not recent.  We could tell it was a Cessna and blue and white.

     Slacked packed from Rock Gap to Winding Stairs Gap.
     Easy 4 mile day.  I had to wait in Franklin for my drop box.  I'll be on my to Nantahala Outdoor Center tomorrow.  Jay left today to go back to Rome, GA.  Now Simon and I are alone.
