Hi,

I'm starting my thru-hike in May after I graduate going NOBO.

I was wondering if there were any towns along the trail that I would be better off doing a mail drop rather than picking up supplies at stores.

From what I've read mail drops seem to be more of a hassle than what they are worth, but I have also read that there are some towns that it would be best to mail drop in because of limited stores or that good stuff.

Thank you so much!

Both work, depends upon your preferences. I prefer to purchase. Look at Mr. Tarlin's resupply articles if you want to know which places may be better for mail drops.
