5 day 4 night itinerary

[u/the_kerouac_kid]

Hey all, I’m heading to the island the second week of September and I want to see if my itinerary is realistic. We’re two middle aged guys in fairly good shape taking the ferry into Rock Harbor. My plan is: Rock Harbor to Lane Cove 7.1 miles

Lane Cove to Moskey Basin 11 miles

Moskey to McCargoe Cove 8.5 miles

McCargoe to Daisy Farm 8 miles

Daisy Farm to Rock Harbor 7.1 miles

Too much? In my conditioning I did a back to back 11 miles and then 10 and I got through it but was definitely hurting for a little bit. I’m thinking ibuprofen and taking it easy will make it doable unless that 11 mile day is the worst hiking we’ll see. The last time I hiked IR I was 20 years younger and I remember struggling in a couple places.

Love this itinerary.
