I had transportation lined up from the northern to southern terminus of the BMT for mid-April, but it has gotten a little iffy due to too many of the various animals on my cousin's farm being 'with child' but declining to announce their precise due dates. I feel some discomfort with having my ride depend on the whims of either a cow or a goat.

Does anyone offer a shuttle for the entire BMT? All I have seen advertised are for shorter distances. I want to travel northbound, but am flexible about which end I park at, so I could do the shuttle in mid-April, preferable, or early to mid-May, in the opposite direction.

Pretty much any AT shuttle driver who shuttles from Springer to Davenport Gap would do it. Check the AT shuttle list.

My understanding is that you can park at Standing Bear Hostel, and they will shuttle you to Springer. Not sure what they charge.

Walk in the Wild is shuttling me tentatively on April 19. If any one is interested in sharing a ride for all or part of it to share costs, let me know. I am able to be flexible on dates, give or take a day or two before or after.
