Anybody have experience on the MST here in the eastern part of NC? I live so close and just discovered it. I am getting de Hart's book on the trail but thought some of ya all might an idea what this trail is like. Alot yellow blazing, bike paths, that sort of thing.

I have walked a few small segments of it in the Pisgah National Forest in Western NC. It start's at Clingmans Dome in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It ends with a 40 mile beach walk on the Outer Banks.

It's a great trail, and the group that is building it, Friends of the Mountain to Sea Trail (FMST) could sure use some help. Their president, Jeff Brewer, just backpacked the 900+ mile length of it in (2) months. He finished 2 weeks ago.
Check out their website at the following address;
