Saucy Hikes

Saucy Is Split…

Well folks, we regret to inform you Saucy is currently split up. Earlier this week, Lucy took a fall coming down a mountain and re-sprained her left ankle. Big womp. Thankfully, we were only half a mile from a road, and lady bug helped get her down in one piece. This unfortunately means Lucy is now home in Arlington to recover for three weeks before rejoining lady bug on trail. Nothing is broken, which is a win, but the doctor did emphasize the need for some serious rest and PT in order to strengthen the ligaments before getting back out there. We are trying to stay positive about this… but it was a very sad goodbye and Lucy is currently going crazy at home.

Worse than a breakup 🥲 the hardest goodbye!

Sarah is currently working her way through the Smokies, following the NC/TN border! It has been quite depressing to hike without Lucy and there have been far fewer giggles. However, there have been a couple of highlights, as shown below:

The highest point on the AT!
“Boxer”
Liz
She reunited with some good friends from week 1🫶
Epic weekend with some new friends in Gatlinburg🎡
First bear of the trail! Of course it was seen from a car…

Overall, Saucy is devastated to be split up and counting down the days until we can be reunited! Thanks for all of your support

Saucy will be back in no time!👋

    Cheers to the courage these two have shown in dealing with quite a bit of adversity in the first month on the trail. Adversity is an opportunity to see true character, and these two have shined! Here’s to a speedy reunion Saucy!!!
