    If you need a shuttle I might be able to help you out. I need to know when. I have a M-F 8-5 day job. But before of after that I could help you out.

    I'd park a Clearwater as there's a CG. Not much out at the locks.

    I read on a social media page there is someone leaving index cards at trailheads etc for shuttles through ONF,,,
    He is suppose to be reasonable and reliable.
    Iif you find yourself near the citrus tract(not far from onf) let me know as I am doing a hike out there before I start my thru hike.
    If I die trying now I wont die wondering how life could have turned out.....

    I did an overnighter there a week and a half ago, and there were plenty of hunters, but I hiked wearing my Blaze Orange hat, and didn't get shot.

    That's a great section, my partner and I did that during spring break in early March a while back. Very enjoyable. Glad there is someone shuttling again, I may need to chat with my wife about doing that at Christmas one year soon.

    Seems like a reasonable 3 -3.5 day trip? Hoping to get some cold weather as this heat is ridiculous...probably late march early April.

    Yup. Though the trail was more difficult than I expected -- no hills, of course, but walking on sand can be slower.
