I have a weird timing restriction; I'm starting a 10-day section NOBO at the Tye river bridge, my wife dropping me off around noon, and I need to be in Waynesboro the following evening (no matter why this is). That's right at 30 miles in 1.5 days, no real problem except where to spend that intermediate night.
There is a shelter at about 9 miles (Maupin field), leaving a 21 MPD second day. There's also an established campsite at 17.5, but starting at noon, that's a stretch and it would be some late hiking.
So, I'm asking if any locals near there know if there are some good campsites in the 12-15 mile range north of the Tye river bridge road crossing.
Any thoughts appreciated!
