    Default Shuttles between Davenport Gap and Hot Springs

    Trying to day hike this section. I know I can use the outfitter in Hot Springs for the Garenflo Gap to Hot Springs section. Does anyone shuttle the Davenport Gap/Brown Gap; Brown Gap/Lemon Gap; Lemon Gap/Garenflo Gap sections? The access points seem a little remote and hard to get to.

    Did you try Jeff at the Hike Inn. Think that's the name.

    Sorry ignore my post. I have the wrong name. I'll have to do some digging but I didn't think Brown or Lemon Gap were that difficult to get thru when I went thru.

    I did an overnighter from Davenport Gap to Lemon Gap last year to test some gear and got Standing Bear Farm to do the shuttle. I'm not sure what the situation is right now with the hostel with Curtis' death but you could give them a call.

    Just drove to Garenflo Gap a couple of weeks ago and the road was in fine shape.

    You might try this guy:
    Bob, 828-656-2665 Don't know his last name. I have him in my phone as "Bob the geologist" because he seemed to know absolutely everything about the mountain ranges and rock types.
    Found him through the outfitter, don't know if he shuttles on his own or not.
