I plan to carry them in the Whites. Lots of trails criss cross and the AT uses different named trails.
Just hike your own hike and you'll be all right.
Is that so you can shoot the hippies ?
I hear they don't carry so should be easy shootings...

Boot or shoes..depends on how your feet feel in them.
I'd go see a foot doctor and get custom insoles. Feet blister when they are hot and have friction. Friction is caused by your foot moving...

Peter cries wolf. They evend went 3x.

look around Standing Indian. Lot of good loop options. I'm planning a 7 day from Deep Gap to Fontana. You could do 4 day from Deep Gap to NOC. Lots of good options in that area.
Expect hot, hot, humid and maybe hot.
Possible low water..depends
May - not hot but good chance for rain
April - rainey, cold, but not hot.

I prefer to keep my ears open so I can hear the heavy breathing and pounding of bears or perhaps the every so slight twig breaking of mountain lions sneaking up on me. Plus it can't compete with the...
aquamira also has a filter stick thats good for 50 gallons and screws on any water bottler and hydration packs. Stick directly in the water, use gravity drip also.
between the Frontier Pro stick...
