    Thanks for the welcome everybody.

    While there are some gougers on the trail, most of the outfitters I have visited are 'fair' priced.

    the OHF is one of the finest establishments along the trail in my experience & it is run by two of the most good-hearted, friendly people that one could ever hope to run into along their journey.

    the fact that they have great prices too is just icing on the cake!

    And you should too, you are a darn good writer. A good writer grabs at a persons emotions and I garuntee you Jack Tarlin you can grab a persons emotion to the deepest level, but I truly think you ought to be a writer for Andy Rooney or someone of the make.......

    Thanx for the kind words, TOW, but Andy Rooney??

    I don't work for commies.

    And as to the shop in Harpers Ferry, there will be another REALLY great reason for folks to visit and shop this year, but I'm gonna keep this one under my hat for awhile.

    But all I'm saying is that the extraordinary friendliness and top-notch customer service that one already finds there is about to get even better.

    (And no, I'm not talking about me!!)

    He's moving there for something. A puzzle as to where he's working.

    He should be hiking the CDT this year!

    Yes! They apparently do have an ebay presence. The Minus 33 woollies are on sale right now...not sure how long the sale will last.

    My order just came in today's mail. I LOVE them! They are so soft and snuggly and they were on $32.24 each. Just search for Minus 33 on ebay and you'll find them.

    Hello! I'm in Harpers Ferry, at the Outfitters. And, you know, working here. So what has been one of the best kept secrets in the hiking community (they offered me the job about a year and a half ago) is out in the open.

    I aim to be for gear what The Pussycat Dolls are to music.

    Wait. That's not right.
