Hey all, I've been reading up on this site for awhile but this is my first actual post.
I'm planning on hiking the section from Manchester Center, VT - Gifford Woods State Park on Sept 14th-17th. I sectioned from Gifford Woods-Hanover previously so wanted to connect up with that to continue my sectioning the trail. My current idea was to park at Gifford Woods and get a shuttle down to the trailhead at Manchester Center and hike back north to my car. Any tips/insight for this section of the trail?
Also this will be the first time I'll be looking into using a shuttle (other sections I've either used multiple cars or done out and back). I've taken a look at the the AT shuttle list and looks like there's a few options in the area. Any recommendations on shuttlers for a solo hiker in this area?
Thanks!
