I guess there is no ABC/Liquor store in Damascus, VA? Not finding anything online just in Abbington.
What does everyone like to pack? Would love to bring some woodford reserve but man I really like it chilled. Tequila tastes ok warm I guess. What do you guys prefer above room temp?
Anyone recommend safe and reliable place to leave our cars for a section hike? Hostel that will charge us, friend that wants to make a little $ or a nice bottle of something?
I slept with my food in a light food bag about the last quarter of my trip. I was just tired of hanging it every night and nothing ever bothered me. I also rubbed olive oil all over my body like my...

Anybody seen anything about trail crowding around Davenport Gap/Hot Springs, NC/Erwin, TN on the AT? Any closures anyone is aware of? Authorities keeping people off AT?
I just like the trail companion, plainning is easier and it's been a long time since I have hiked it. I am beginning to think GA will be a better option we will probably see a lot of NOBOs picking...
Served in peace corps Mexico but back stateside now need to update that. I had no idea trail was closed until after I posted in straight forward forum. So I am just trying to digest this, is it...

Got a future thru hiker cooking in the wife's oven and need to make room for the nursery. Closets pretty much as capacity so that leaves the attic. Living in Charleston, SC it can get brutally hot...
Going out on a 3 day, heard parking for a few days could be shady around Hot Springs and was wondering if anyone had any trouble ever. There is a lot across the river but was wanting to maybe park at...
Just got off the trail at Wind Gap. Gotta get my tequila and huddle down for a couple days!

Flying out in the morning to start my SOBO, was wondering if anyone had any insight about the mosquitos in Maine right now. Don't want to pack or deal with deet if I don't have to. I know its mid...
Got my dog vaccinated for lyme and he is ready for the trail. I plan on applying food grade diatomaceous earth every few days as well but wanted to get input on frontline vs advantix and whether or...
Just bought a new pair of Merrell stretch shoes for my SOBO out of Maine. Anyone recommend some light insoles to pad the old dogs or just leave the ones already in there? If so, which kind?

Another vote for Grayson Highlands, that place is special and I bet sweet in the fall.
