It's the final countdown.

Three days of hiking left, it's crazy to think about. The north is lush and verdant green, it's covered in wildflowers. Over the past couple days I've been to Tsfat (Safed) and Mt. Meron, it's been a ton of fun but with the finish line right in front of me I'm having trouble keeping pace and not just sprinting for it.

Rugged mountain path, I forget what the mountain was called but it's beautiful.

On the door of the Bathroom at my trail angels in Tsfat (Safed). They're great people!

This arch is likely older than the U.S. and it's just used as a foot bridge over the river. I love it.

Elijah's seat on Mt. Meron, jewish tradition holds that when the Messiah comes, he will sit on this seat.

More purple flowers on top of the mountain.

View from as close to the top as you're allowed to get of Mt. Meron (the top is a military area).

I've seen a lot more of the book boxes up here in the north.
