We are looking forward to July and SNP. As section hikers we usually plan the direction based on where we can leave the vehicle in the safest place, so we are thinking of doing SNP from top to bottom. This way we can leave our car at the Inn at Afton motel at Rockfish Gap.
If we go South from Front Royal are we missing anything versus going North?
Also we are planning on 10 days to do the 107 miles, too many days? too little days?
And (know we are asking a lot here) I've heard/read that the shelters dont always match up with a 10 mile day so can we hammock about anywhere away from a road?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
