Hi,
Am planning a hike through SNP for the last week of October. I will be carrying a day pack only, and my intent is to get off the trail at the end of each day. I would like to start from Rockfish Gap and head toward Front Royal - depnding on my days out and how far I hike each day, will go as far North as I can get in the time I have. I hope to do 15 or so miles per day.
I would greatly appreciate any advice on an itinerary - ie. places to get off the trail to get food, sleep (don't care if I sleep in my car). I contacted MV shuttle and got info from them on costs, but would also appreciate any other suggestions on shuttles - if anyone has had good experience with one or another, etc. Will also check on ATC website for shuttle info.
Thanks for any advice anyone can give - if anyone wants to join me during that time, let me know!
