MM - We spoke on the phone awhile back. I'm still available for shuttles if I'm not tied up with the grand-kids etc. I'd be glad to hike along with you too, if I haven't done the section...

OK, thanks
Would anyone be interested in some linked dayhikes on the Blue Ridge Parkway in western NC? It would be from around MP 418 (near Graveyard Fields) to the end of the BRP at MP 469 (near MST terminus,...
I live in Greensboro and Ill be out there from time-to-time section hiking. Always interested in having a hiking buddy and would be glad to provide assistance if needed in the GSO area.

It can be at times, but it's not very frequently, at least in my experience.

I've done GA-to NJ on the AT and hope to section NY/NE in sections over the next few years. Drop me a PM or reply here to discuss once you're done with PA.

Anything new on the Graymoor Friary? Is it still open and can it be used by section hikers?

Taba has made arrangement with at least 27 churches in NC for 2010 and beyond. These churches have graciously allowed their property and water to be used for camping and most are right on or close...
I'm planning on doing some section hikes this summer. I'd like some opinions on the most scenic sections of the AT in Vermont. I'lll probably be hiking a 3 day stretch and hang the hammock or stay...
I've hiked the Neusiok Trail and found it to be rather swampy, featureless, and buggy in the spring, but it does have 2 shelters! That's 50% of the shelters on the 1000 miles or so of the MST!

Met a hiker named Phil on the MST the other day and showed him your book. He seemed very interested in buying one so I gave him your email address off the back cover. Hopefully he'll be...
Sounds like you picked the right one then!
