    In that case I should catch you in 8-9 days. How can I recognize you? (hate to ask every 2 guys hiking if they are Stranger... )

    BTW, my plan is still to leave with 3 days food and a maildrop to Jonesville and wing it the rest of the way.

    I have a ULA Circuit and my buddy will have a Gregory, I have a distinct accent, American meets New Zealand with a touch of Australia...most Americans pick up on it.

    We are going into Morrisville for a motel and resupply, then just maildrop at Jonesville, then into Waitsfield, Rutland, Manchester Center, weather and foot pain will determine if we stay overnight in those towns I suspect : )

    Good luck, my plans fell apart and a pretty good opportunity came about so I had to take it. We may still do Jonesville to Canada in mid August so we may pass you. Good luck and enjoy

    Kyle your job is to bring a giant fly swatter and go to town on all the bugs as you hike.


    I'm thinking of leaving after the Tour de France finishes.. so somewhere in the july 23-25 area? Anyone want to go NOBO in the 10-15mi/day range?

    It will take about an hour from North Adams to N Troy. Have a great hike. It has been extremely dry here in W. MA small forest fire in Tyringham yesterday. Bugs have not been bad at all - deer flies have been the worst. Have a great hike.

    We will be on the trail August 6th, starting from Brandon Gap. I have a black Gregory pack with an AMC patch on the shovel pocket.

    It has been super dry this summer in Vermont. Springs are still flowing but there is little to no mud. Hikers are confused.

    Not to worry...a couple of heavy rains the the mud shall return.
