Nsherry, I know this family. Not sure what post you interpreted, but this young girl is an athlete who had a plan that was drastically changed by an injury. And a teen, hence, confusion with life...
Please contact authorities if you see a young person on the trail- redheaded/freckles. May be attempting to get on the trail near Roanoke. She has run away from home. I know her family personally....
Thanks so much for the info.

I am planning a section hike on the AT between Rockfish Gap and Buena Vista. Our plan is to do southward slackpack over a couple of days to the Tye River, then jump south back to Buena Vista and hike...
We are hoping to do this Section (if the weather permits). I would like some feedback from those who have done this section if it sounds doable. Here is my proposed schedule:
Slackpacking the...
Great idea, Red Cinema. I do dehydrated meals and really like the mashed potato cups...makes it seem really hearty.
Did you have plenty of water on the trail?
Oh, my. It must depend on the Scout leader. Been at too many with shelters and all surrounding space filled.
Thanks for the info. Still working on the resupply issues. Some in our group are really concerned about the limited choices.
7 of us are doing the SNP later in June and are wondering exactly what food items we can resupply with at the camp stores, in particular, Lewis Mtn. Campground. We are planning on stopping at Loft...
Agree. Let K be a blue blaze. Enough already.

BSP knew he was coming, knew media was coming, and allowed it all. Looks like they are using this event to simply push forward their own agenda which is to get the AT out of the park because of PAST...

Came home a week ago from my FlipFlop Thru Hike attempt after 450 miles because of stress factures. Cannot adequately express my frustrations. I'm an experienced backpacker/hiker, but failed to...

Dwill1000, Thanks for the great info.
I'm getting comments about the hike from Harpers Ferry starting May 3rd that I'm going to hit the black flies in New Hampshire and Maine. Following the schedule I have (and everything goes great...no...
Treehugger,
Hope you can get out there quickly. Look forward to meeting you!
Treated my clothes, shoes, pack with Permethrin. Didn't do my tent, although, I usually do. Hope it works! Also, had my dr give me a prescription for Lyme treatment. Not sure if I should go ahead and...
I've read the post below regarding fuel canister resupply; however, this was dated 2011. Is it still accurate?
Q: Where are canisters available along the AT?

So excited, Laurie! Thanks for all your work putting this together:-)
Bsteinberg, Yes, I could start out with less. I'm also prone to not wanting to stop and filter along the way. Maybe it's because I use the Platypus Gravity Works. Got to stop, take pack off, dig for...
