Hi,
I'm doing a section hike starting at VA 600 (Elk Garden). I'm planning to spend the night on 6/16 at the Baptist Church Hostel in Troutdale. I'm a little nervous about leaving my jeep at the trailhead since there are reported thefts there. Is anyone near that area that would be willing to give us a lift in the early am on 6/17? Alternatively, does anyone know how far the trailhead is from that hostel?

Thanks!

CORRECTION!

We are starting off from VA 603 Fox Creek NOT Elk Garden. Sorry for the confusion.

Still looking for a ride!
