Day 2 - 11 mi rt 271 to rt 30

Had a great fire last nght at the Rt 271 shelter. Night temps got into the high 40s and we were both comfortable in our light sleeping gear.  Started this am off w/ a 1 mi hike to the trail then it was mostly level hiking for a few miles.  Came across two really neat rock sections that we hiked through. Hiked through a section being logged by the amish - very skilled w/ their chainsaws.  We crossed paths w/ alot of day hikers today, maybe 15 or so and one thru hiker that was coming from Ohiopyle and was going to hike to Seward then do a return trip.  Nutz!  The blister was manageable today w/ moleskin, duct tape and three pairs of socks.  We heard that water was scarce at 30 shelters so we UV processed and  filled our camelbacks at Machine Run - about 3 mi from our shelter.  The last few miles were a mix of steep hills both up and down.  We made it to our shelter by 3 and setup for the night, gathering fire wood.  We decided to hike about 3/4 mi further to Rt 30 and headed to Walats for a few beverages and giant burgers.  Back at the shelter and ready to settle in for the night.
