    900 Miles of Snow?

    It's interesting to see the the southern most AT covered in snow, 900 miles from Springer to the Shenandoah's. You can also see the snow overlayed on a google map with trail trace.

    Not much of it...

    Natural water sources, not caches. Caches and the user field reports are fleeting and misleading. Many hikers might rely on a single hiker report, that may be outdated.

    The PCTA issued permit is not required. Hikers can obtain individual permits.

    Can we at least agree on that?
  12. The app: Databook, Elevation, Topos, Reference Map, Compass, Journal Entry, Weather

    Puppet, partner or panderer of the permit quotas I cannot say. Did the PCTA pander and beg their handlers for these quotas? Was this pandering done at the behest of a small group of TA's because...

    The PCTA issued permit is not a requirement, regardless of how bad you want it to be

    "Do I need a permit to walk down to the post office? No, but I better get one anyway." That is the perception the mob is trying to create and sell in the face of reality.
