To say my body was sore from the day's hike is a huge understatement. I was limping along like Festus from Gunsmoke for most of the evening. I can withstand your typical aches and pains, but after hiking 16.6 miles in the hot August heat my gluteus maximus was toast. Luckily there was a CVS close by and Bruce told me about a wonderful new miracle powder for an occasion such as this... Monkey Butt!
Never heard of it, but if it helps ease the pain... I'll try anything. Bruce and I grab a few other necessities and gingerly make our way to the check out counter. Only a true AT hiker would appreciate our purchases this evening...six pack of beer, a bag of cheese doodles, some Vaseline and a big bottle of Monkey Butt.
We then grabbed some Chinese takeout and headed back to the room to get rested up for the next day's hike... we were wore out.
I personally have not needed any "monkey butt" but both of my boys say it works great after a day of sweating in the summer sun!!! It is the funniest thing I have ever seen. Sorry you had to get to know the monkey himself :)
