Wanting to start a LASH in Erwin and head north.
Would like to make it through the triple crown area. (around 375-400 mi?)
What is a reasonable estimation on the number of days I should allow. (solo hiker, 40 y/o, not wanting to do huge mile days everyday but OK with 20 or more occasionally)
What time of year is recommended.
Would like a shower/meal at a motel/hostel or campground etc. every 4-5 days if possible but not necessary.
Where is a good place to get off the trail/leave my car? I would incorporate a shuttle in the beginning.
Please discuss logistics and also approx. total trip mileage based on where you recommended getting off the trail.
This hike is exciting to me because it would include Roan, Grayson, Mt Rogers, and the Triple Crown.
Thank so much!!!
