Where in the world is Dan "Wingfoot" Bruce? have one of his old guide books and really don't know much about him. While not new to the AT, pretty new to the Trails families and individuals that maintain, walk, write about, and have even died trying.

He has changed his focus to scholarly research of the bible, you can find him writing papers and giving talks on that.
The trouble I have with campfires are the folks that carry a bottle in one hand and a Bible in the other.
You never know which one is talking.
The word several years ago was that he had to stop keeping his Guidebook up-to-date to take care of elderly parent(s). I believe he sold the rights to ____ ? 501 maybe?

I talked to trail maintainer in June who happened to know Wingfoot. He told me "Well, last I saw him he was bundled up on a bench and....... I won't say anymore other than he was bundled up on a bench." Sounded pretty dire to me.
"All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."

I'm so confused, I'm not sure if I lost my horse or found a rope.
Thanks everyone, I'd been wondering this for a while and finally after reading Pilots post ,it reminded me that I didn't know anything about the him, and I've never heard of him posting here, he just seemed to fall off the grid.Again thinks.
Whats this "bundled up on a bench" suppose to mean? that's pretty strong words on another's rep and it is some trail maintainer opinion? I'm sorry Ms. Baggins but I don't think that was very kind. Wingfoot has done a lot to promote backpacking and the AT and etc. Plus he's a friend to WB and hikers, we owe him a little better loyalty than that.

On a personal note it looks like he's gone bonkers!
Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.
