In a few weeks I'll be giving a workshop to discuss trail magic at the
A.T. Festival in Castleton, Vermont.
I'm going to be showing photos that illustrate the spectrum of trail magic, provide a few quotes I've gathered, review the
trail magic suggestions that were developed a couple of years ago by ATC (with input and feedback from folks here at WhiteBlaze, ALDHA and elsewhere), and invite discussion from the audience.
I'd like to include more photos that illustrate trail magic or quotes that explain what it means to you today, and what role it has played in your A.T. experience. I expect most of this to be positive, but if hikers, trail maintainers, trail managers, or trail angels themselves have problems or concerns, I want to include that too.
Please send any high-resolution digital photos (for use in a PowerPoint) you'd be willing to have shown or comments you'd like shared to:

If you have comments about the trail magic suggestions themselves, please send those along too. Looking forward to seeing you in Vermont!
