May 11 (Day 55) - Damascus, VA to Lost Mountain Shelter

Per usual, I was the first to awake.  So Way and I went to Cowboys and retrieved four coffees and four orders of their amazing blueberry pancakes.  Back at the MRO hostel, So Way, Spam, Honey Badger, and I devoured the breakfast and talked over coffee.  So Way was off the trail for a few days, as he had pulled a muscle in his chest, but Spam, Honey Badger, Vitamin C, and I prepared to depart.

Spam and Vitamin C bypassed part of the A.T. by hiking the Virginia Creeper Trail, a scenic trail along the river.  Honey Badger and I, however, wanted to white blaze and decided to meet them after the two trails crossed.  The four of us met up and made camp at Lost Mountain Shelter.
