The hikers hiked about 5 miles to the Derek Knob Shelter and ate lunch. During the afternoon hike, Jill started walking slower and slower and started feeling sicker and sicker. She was worried she was getting the Norovirus so she sent Southpaw and Ken on ahead to get a place in the shelter. She was worried she would have to leave the hike and by the time she reached the shelter, she had hit an emotional and physical wall and broke down. The guys were worried about her and Ken made her supper while she rested. When I talked to her, she said that helped...a little.
They spent the night at the Siler's Bald Shelter and all hoped that IWOX would be up for walking the next day.
