Oops again. I was planning on starting the beginning of March but since I'm not really on a tight schedule I figure I'll start around April 15th. I also have a silkweight base layer that I can...

Hi -

I'm doing a section hike from Mass 8 in Dalton to Mass 2 in North Adams, MA. Does anyone know if there is any parking at the trail head in Dalton? I plan on leaving my car there and...

Nike running shorts for me (commando). I have the older ones that have a nice little slit on the side - very comfy and non-constricting :rolleyes:

Thanks for the info. I checked out the bus site and I can't figure out if I should park for free in N. Adams and go SOBO or park in Dalton, go NOBO and take the 3 buses back to my car...
