Did a quick google search and found the trail map. Any trail guides available? Maybe a more detailed trip report?

Hey Neo, looks like you had a good time. I looked at those pics. Now, that's what I call a shelter!

Great Pics, Neo! Sorry I couldn't make it to eat with you at Patti's work called, you know. Actually, after you called, my boss told me to go check out some land. Darn, that meant I had to go walk in the woods for about 3 hours--naturally I went home and got my pack first. Life is rough.

Glad you and Sneakers had a good, if cold time. Let me know if any of you here on Whiteblaze need a shuttle. Be happy to help if I'm not on my TH this summer.
