Does anyone have a name and contact info for the lady driving a green van doing trail magic. I ran across her multiple times on the AT in Georgia and would like to reach out to say thank you.

I think she also provides shuttle services.

Lol! That would be Ms. Janet, she resides in Erwin, TN but she is on the trail in random locations the majority of the season. I don't personally have her contact info but she is on Instagram and you could message her there. @themissjanet

Thank you. I don't use Instagram, but might need to make an exception in this case.

I had no clue of what a valuable resource I was meeting. I love what she does to actually help hikers.

After searching, I see just how many others she has impacted.

Does she still have that smiling faced yellow ball on the roof her van? Saw her van in Gorham, NH last September. I rememberedit because it was so ridiculous. Hiked into Grafton Notch needing a ride down RT 26 to get to our car spotted at the GNLT parking area near Puzzle mtn. Saw the van and walked over and saw there was a sign on the Window to wake her up if anyone wanted a ride. Miss Janet. I was pretty excited to meet a trail legend. Nice lady.

Yes the ball is still there. I thought it was white, but I was pretty tired both times I saw it.

She also has an "auuuuga" horn that is distinct.
