Hi!
As someone unfamiliar with US business practice I'm wondering what effect holidays have on resupply options in the first week or two on the trail.
I figure after a fortnight I'll be in to the swing of things but I am looking at a start date of about 24/5 March 2013 and realised 29 March is Good Friday.
In Australia much of our retail shuts down for 4 days over Easter.
I was looking at starting from Amicola on the Sunday/Monday to get to Walasi-Yi well before the weekend but am wondering if I may need to carry an extra day or two of food from there as Hiawassee etc may be limited resupply.
Cheers
Jacko
