somewhere between 3-500 miles (time constraints will limit me to this). Can you compare/contrast the BMT and the AT through the same area (Springer to GMNSP)? I am intrigued by this hike. Is resupply an issue? Terrain and elevation more or less the same? Shelters on the BMT? Not that I like to sleep in them but they were nice for cooking and usually near water - I would tent near one usually on the AT. Any comments are appreciated. One benefit of a revisit of the AT is the convenience factor - I know were to stay, resupply, find water, etc. but am open to others. The solitude of the BMT is appealing but, otoh, I will be starting at Springer well behind the horde (latter part of May).
