It's all easy hiking. I don't recall any stores within view of the trail in either Dalton or Cheshire, but I wasn't really looking. Jack Tarlin 09-23-2008, 20:44 There are a few grocery/convenience stores within a few minutes walk of both Cheshire and Dalton, tho you may well not need them Tin Man 09-23-2008, 21:11 You can always cache at the half way point. It works well for my partner and I. Blissful 09-24-2008, 19:56 Dalton is better, Cheshire has nothing much, except an outfitter was trying to get going there - not sure what's up with that. We stayed at the church hostel in Cheshire - worked out well. It is a little hefty hiking to Mt Greylock area. Rest is pretty easy. Enjoy! Peaks 09-25-2008, 08:30 adams town? It's either North Adams, Williamstown, or possibly Adams. canoehead 09-25-2008, 08:49 Your trip will start off a bit hilly then flaten out, Don't need to resupply, but Dalton will work, and water should be good for most of the way. |
