I’m considering hiking the North-South Trail that goes through Land Between the Lakes this summer. Does anyone know of any shuttle services or trail angels in the area?

It makes me happy to hear someone else is giving this trail a go, I spent a good amount of time in college trying to do it in one shot, never succeeded! I'm not familiar with any shuttle services running out there, maybe try to convince a friend to drop you at the start and have your car at the exit? Forces you to complete the hike, but I've hitchhiked LBL a time or two, people are willing if you're desperate. Have fun!
Hey guys, I'm interested in attempting the AT this spring and looking for some used gear,any info would be appreciated
I saw the download/list for shuttle services along the AT, but this isn't on the AT. Where can I find a list that covers other trails?
You probably need to look at Uber or Lyft

I really dont know why some folks have posted or suggested the things they have because they are useless. No AT shuttle driver is going to have a realistic suggestion for a 30 mile trail 300 miles away.
Jared you may want to look at FB for things like "Friends of LBL, N-S Trail group" etc etc this is how I have done the whole sheltowee trace, via facebook "friends of the ST" groups
