I just got back from my annual section hike (series of dayhikes) southbound on the AT from South Arm Road north of Andover to US 2 east of Gorham, NH. This trip was from 6/4 thru 6/12. The attachment covers our experiences and a southbounder might find this report useful. It will be embellished at a later time with my usual charts of statistics and photo albums. But for now you can see what we dealt with.

The attachment (trip report) has been revised with all statistics and photo album links are imbedded into the report. See post below for new attached trail report including August 25 hike from Notch Trail to Success Trail Junctions southbound.

Great timing. Looking forward to reading your report. We're doing Rangeley to Gorham starting on 7/1

See my original post as the trip report has been completed and photo albums are imbedded into the report. For shortcuts to my photo albums - here are the links:
