Thanks Cookerhiker, this is a great idea, I'll put this to use here in PA and other places. I bet that I can get a seat by myself on the way back! Rancid
Don't forget to figure your elevations.
Yes, but not exactly. A friend and I started at Deep Creek, late afternoon, and camped early after a few miles. We then hiked up along Thomas Ridge to the AT. We the went south and then dropped down...
Thanks for your responses, I'll start mapping out these suggestions. And Kirby, I love a challange, it turns a hike in the woods into an adventure.
Family matters will end in Townsend, MA. I have time for a 3-4 day hike and I"d like to try VT. This is the only state that I haven't hiked any of on the AT. Any advice for southern VT/CT area would...
I have a Billville bumper sticker, BVL, on the back of my van and twice I've been asked " how did you like Little Rock?" ??? Must be another Billville !!
Thanks for posting this update, I've often wondered about his fate. I sort-of hope that they do not find his remains, so that he will always be apart of something he loved, and an object of folklore.
Thanks Guys (or girls), Looks like I'm headed to REI tomorrow morning for a new jacket. I have an REI jacket, Elements I think, that is about 12 years old. Served me well on and off the trail, but...
Over the last few years I have heard a lot of praise for the "precip' jacket, along with some negatives. I decided to buy one with my 20% discount from REI along with my rebate credit. Now I see that...
I went to that area of the Smokies' in Oct. 2002 to hike the local trails in hopes of seeing or hearing some Elk. At that time, the main concerns were, how would the Black Bears react to thier new...
Apparently you were present at the campsite when this took place. It is tragic that the bear "had" to be put down, but I doubt very much that your group was the cause of her demise. It probably...
Thank you for that location information, but mostly I would like to thank you for all of your hard work so that the trail is more enjoyable for the many hikers who use it. That area of SMNP is my...
Good news for this coffee lover; but my pack weight just went up a 1/2 lb.
Thanks for the warning, actually a reminder Jack. I swim and lounge in the Delaware River quite often about 10 miles north of the AT bridge. It looks like a short distance across, but the current is...
Congrats to you Steve, I'm positive that you're a fond memory to 16,000 people who thru-hiked the AT, and even more folks like myself who have had the pleasure of meeting you at Caratunk. I'll be...
I did a hike up to Kirkridge Shelter on 7/3 from the DWG parking lot. Going up I ran into Quiet Paul and English Bob, and while returning, I hiked down the mnt. with Waist Deep. All were doing well....
How strange, at the same time that you entered your thread, I was posting my thoughts to Trail Dog, who is over in the Big Sandbox. My feelings are strong towards are service people that have been...
I'm heading to the AT to hike for this Memorial Day weekend around the Delaware Water Gap on the NJ side. My loop will take me to the hugh rockface overlooking the Gap where I intend to sit for...
I was there and I see that I still missed a lot of the fun. Now that I have met most of these hikers, the photos are even funnier. I'm already making plans for next year to be at TD. Thanks for...
I found BV last weekend at TD, It's farout there! I can tell you how to get there, but I cannot tell you where it is. Rancid
Odd, it will burn jet fuel, but don't take it on the jet! By the way, where does one purchase 8 oz. of jet fuel??
I'll be there, also inside eating breakfast. If any hikers need a ride to TD, I'll be glad to pick you up on my way. I'll be heading south on 81 from PA early Fri. morning. I can take 5or 6 hikers...
I have had spinal surgery twice, and when I sleep in my HH, I have no pains and I feel great in the mornings. When I sleep on the ground however, I toss and turn all nite and have to walk like...
I'm biting my tongue-won't go there
