Bump. Hike is coming up.

I was considering leaving my car at Hemlock Hollow and getting a shuttle from there to Sams Gap. Thanks for the water info. A friend of mine was fishing in the Harmon Den area this weekend and he...

Doing a section hike from Allen Gap to Sams Gap soon. Does anyone have any news on water sources? I apologize if it is posted elsewhere. I haven't been on WB for a while. Also, does anyone have...

Hard work is the best sleeping pill. 20 miles per day is hard work for me.

Trimmer. That was the word I was looking for. Showing my age with weed whacker.

I went through that section a week ago. I camped at the same spot. All water sources listed were going as well as plenty of seeps. I didn't think the trail was that bad. It looked like somebody...

Marble Spring has water as of 11-21.

Does anybody have any info about the water situation in Central Virginia? I'm particularly interested in the Three Ridges area and the James River Face Wilderness area (Marble Spring).

Thanks for...

I saw a guy this summer that had a large fishing reel that had an alarm on it when the line was pulled. He said he was going to string it around his campsite and use it as a bear alarm. The thing...

Temple Hill Ridge Gap was what I was guessing. Another trail intersects there according to the map. Thanks!

Thanks for the help!

Does anybody know if there are any decent spots to tent near the No Business Knob Shelter area but not at the actual shelter. I would like to camp before the big drop into Erwin.

One more vote for the CCF on top of the inflatable. I gave the inflatable about 30 minutes to warm up and it never did. I switched and put the CCF on top and the difference was immediately...

I think the difference is that you feel immediate heat reflection from a CCF on top but the inflatable takes a little time to warm up. I will try the inflatable on top because it will be more...

oops. I meant to quote Colorado Rob

Numbers don't lie.

Yeah, I was thinking of putting the inflatable on top since it has a higher R rating.

I'm heading out this weekend and the overnight temps will be @15F. I have a Big Agnes insulated Air Core pad (R value of 4.1) and I was going to use it in conjunction with a ridge rest. Will this...

The Pinnacle is in there too for $199.99 in long and regular. Too good of a deal not to share.

I know there has been a lot of rain in that area but I gotta ask. How is the water availability in that area? I am particularly interested in the spring at Ash Gap. I heard it is intermittent. ...

The CVT is blazed with blue "diamonds". They looked new.

I did the North mountain and AT loop last weekend. The connector trail from the Andy Layne trail to the North mountain trail is called The Catawba Valley trail. The map I have does not indicate a...

What is the water situation at Marble spring? And where is the spring from the trail?

Thanks for the info.

Where does the southern end of the North Mountain Trail come out at? I think it's somewhere near the Catawba Grocery. Google earth shows a pull off just West of the grocery but I can't see the...
