I don't know how far I am mileage wise, but I can access most points between Daleville, VA and Montebello, VA in about an hour or less.

[MkBibble]

752 miles straight line; 897 miles if I choose to follow the roads.

I live an hour to an hour and a half from from the trail here in PA. If I leave from work I can be in the Duncannon area in 45 mins. I would have liked to have met you and your family when you were here a few weeks ago. I spent sometime recently down in SNP and was surprised to meet Chin Music and B-Rocket who I thought were farther North.

Hiker Mom, you might enjoy browsing this old thread.

The closest point for me in distance is 226 miles to Newfound Gap.

The closest in driving time is Davenport Gap at 234 miles.

OMGosh... that old thread was interesting!! The thread started in 2004? and the last post was like 2009? That's interesting. I saw many in there I've never seen (interesting user names) but then again saw many that I know. LOVE IT! Did you see where TOW said he lived so far away- he now lives in Damascus along with Lone Wolf, Gypsy and others.

I like the responses now too... This is !

I love that the so much of the trail is within a half-day's drive!
