Thanks folks! I've got a message into the Monson Visitor Center, much appreciated!
Hello,
Does anyone know the current fording conditions from Monson to Wilson Valley Lean To?
Thanks
That part of the report struck me as well. How easily they walked out. Of course - they weren't lost - so in a completely different frame of mind. I read this essay a while back and thought it was...
<!--?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?-->I want to make a plug for map and compass skills. I don’t agree they are useless if you are lost, in fact, they are just what you need.

That picture is unreal! :) Thanks for that. Good point on the Black Flies, if I go I will bring my headnet.
I don't intend to go all the way to the summit - maybe to the lean to before the...
Does anyone know the trail conditions near Grafton Notch? I was thinking about doing a day hike off there soon to maybe Table Rock and onto Baldpate.
Any info appreciated.
[/COLOR]This is exactly my thought about the roadbed. Why not turn around? Obviously, we don't know what happened, so it's speculation to a large degree. But I really wonder if she got lost early...
Thanks, yes I always have my tent for the 2 of us. :) I just like to be near shelters/campsites where there's water and people.
Thanks for the tip about the section ahead, that's exactly what...
Hey there,
I'm in Maine and I'm planning an "out and back". I was wondering if anyone has done the section from East B Hill Road to Hall Mountain Lean To. I thought I'd leave my car in that...
This is helpful info about the road, I've heard it was not well maintained before. Perhaps I'll do an exploratory trip before she arrives.
Thank you all for responding, very helpful. I have a...

It looks like you can go in the notch trail, hike north through the notch, then take the Speck Pond Rd back to Success Road.
Am I reading...
So with this approach - is it a loop? but you end up doing the notch twice, once in each direction?
A loop is appealing because we wouldn't need a ride...
I have a friend doing a thru hike and she's almost to Maine where I live. I'd like to Slackpack with her through Mahoosic Notch. Is this possible? Where are the entry and exit points? Do we need to...
I've had the exact same thought. What if I did Rockfish Gap to Front Royal or Rockfish Gap to Harpers Ferry? Can you talk a little about the resupply in the park? Where do I do that? at the...
Hey,
Please help, I'm torturing myself.
I've mapped out a 125 miles from Harpers Ferry to Duncannon for early May, but I find myself wondering if I should move south a bit and do some of the...
I've got AWOL's from last year, and I'm not seeing this in there, so I thought I'd ask here.
Are there any places to stay in Boiling Springs that allows dogs?
Hey all,
Currently planning a hike from Harper's Ferry to Duncannon sometime late May early June. Have some specific questions, any help appreciated.
Where can I leave my car in...
Thank you so much for this! I'll start looking at maps. May I ask - what is it about NY/NJ/Mass/Conn that you like? Easy trail? Good views? Easy resupply?
Hello,
Looking for suggestions for a spring section hike. I'm in Maine, would prefer not to drive further south than Virginia. Looking to do 100 miles. I average 8-10 miles a day depending on...
Thanks for the feedback folks, super helpful to hear that others have had similar thoughts. I forgot about the firewardens trail, maybe we'll do that. :)
When does the caretaker leave for the season?
I'm contemplating and out and back from Route 27. I figured I could stay at Horn's Pond LeanTo, stay there, then hike to hike to Avery Peak the next...
Antler's Campsite is wonderful. Definitely worth a stop. Right on the lake.
Disregard, the ATC site had some good suggestions. I'm all set. :)
Could someone recommend a shuttle service that would take me from Killington to Bennington?
I've got AWOLs guide, but would love some recommendations from here.
I have a dog, so I do not...
I was actually on that section of trail in Maine the weekend of the 4th. Conditions were horrible. I tried hiking from Route 201 in Caratunk up to Monson. It rained so hard the night of the 4th the...
