Heya,

Was hoping someone could post a mileage listing of the major features of the Long Trail, I have the guide book and end to enders guide in NY, but am currently in Australia and need this info to plan a trip later this year.

So if anyone has already done this, like an excel spreadsheet or something, that would be very appreciated. Am interested in knowing distances between:
- Towns
- Shelters
- Roads
etc...

Just so I can plan some things on my end, if not, no worries!

Cheers

Stranger, perhaps this spreadsheet will work for you. It's not arrayed strictly N-S or S-N because by design, I did an "inside-out" hike (http://www.trailjournals.com/entry.cfm?trailname=6248); started at Rt. 4 and hiked north, then went back to Rt. 4 and hiked south.

Also I created it in QuattroPro and saved it as an Excel file for you so I'm not sure whether the formulae transferred. Anyway have a look.
