I’ve done it often. Worst thing that’s happened for me is bunch of cars coming in with kids late at night to party. Dang kids.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've resisted Facebook up to this point. I'll see if I can check it out on someone else account.
Not much activity in this Forum anymore...
I am headed up to Killington to hike the norther 170 miles of the trail. Less than three weeks out so I am prepared but having those nervous nagging...
I meet a lot of hikers whom call themselves thru hikers that obviously are not. I say who cares. If it is that important to someone that they want to lie, so be it, but what's worse than lying to...
Pizza Couscous: add Italian seasoning, sun dried tomatoes, pepperoni and parmesan cheese. Add a little evoo at the end. I usually just do a cold soak for an hour or more prior to wanting to eat. ...
I’ve used a small dab of silicone in the past and it’s worked well having held up for years. I’m only talking about tiny holes, like you said pin size
I use a Snow Peak Mini Hozuki. It's pricey but I found a deal somewhere. It's light weight, for a camp luxury. It's held up well over the last couple of years. I really like it when laying in my...
Holy Cow the weather forecast took a serious dive for next week. I don't think anyone would accuse me of being a fair weather hiker, but omg. Looking at that forecast for the East Coast wouldn't...
Thank you for the feedback. Feeling prepared and ready to go! Just looked at the weather report and it looks like 80% chance of rain and thunderstorms... All part of the adventure I suppose.
I planned on starting at MPHS so it might ease me into the elevation. Hitching to Monarch Pass from Route 50 cut out a little mileage to fit the trip into the time that I have off.
Flying into Denver then to the Amtrak station where I'll pick up a bus to Salida. I'll have a few hours between arriving at the airport and getting on a bus. Planning on walking around and stopping...
Oh boy. Yes, I'll prepared for cold weather and light slow conditions. When the weather changes like that do you have any warning in a forecast or do these storms just pop up at these elevations?...
Give these guys a call for some advise and a map for the area's hiking trails. www.pinecrk.com I've used them twice for shuttles and they seem like a good crew. The Professor is right the NW to N....
I am getting ready to take a hike on the Collegiate Loop and will start at Mount Princeton Hot Springs and finish in Twin Lakes. I have been so excited that I've been dreaming about the hike almost...
I know you asked for the East side of the river, but there may be an option just across the bridge. I would contact these folks. I remember there was a decent sized parking area. http://lgnc.org/ ...
I am still at it. Putting the final details together for a mid September Hike. I will post an outline for advice and to make sure I am not overlooking something obvious. One of the last details is...
That is a calculated rick that only you can assess. Even while on a leash a dog that doesn't know "leave it" could have an issue. If you have a dog that walks with it's nose on the ground and goes...
My theory is this... By the time NOBO thru hikers get to PA they just want to get through it to the next state. The trail's easy elevation changes would allow one to crank out high mileage, but the...
Thanks again for all the input and advise. I feel much more at ease about planning and taking this trip. Also I appreciate the thought about night time temps. With my current cold weather sleeping...
Forgive me brain works slower than my feet... What are you saying there Salty?
Wow, thank you that's awesome! I'll read more into these suggestions tonight. You guys ROCK...
That's what I would really like to do, but unfortunately I can't get two weeks off this year. Thank you for the thought...
I was hoping to find a little help... I have about a week, maybe an extra day or two for travel to section hike the CT this year. Thinking about the first week or two of September. I've been...
I just cut a square off of an old closed cell sleeping pad. Have used the same one now for 1500+ miles. Someone asked me what my favorite piece of gear was... I said my sit pad and got a funny...
Sorry Shuberts Gap is South of 183... Brain fart.
Yesterday the spring at MM 1220.3 was a small puddle. You could scoop out enough water here if needed.
