Quote from Sarcasmtheelf: “I'm tentatively on board, with the caveat that between work and kids I have often have a very hard time keeping any weekends clear. Also, you may want to post this to You Got This! on FB, as a few members there are familiar with the trail and I think at least one member is very well versed with the whole thing. ” Assplug! Thanks for the tip, but I will let the core group discuss this here first before reaching out. Yes, it may take work to find agreeable weekends. That…

Hello Hikers, I am creating this thread mostly for my Connecticut and Long Island friends who join the annual MLK weekend hike, but all are welcome to join the potential hike and discuss. My proposal is that we do an annual weekend hike of the New England Trail (Now officially a National Scenic Trail) with the end goal of completing the entire trail. Here are my thoughts... - Some of these sections could be done on MLK weekend, but I admit I would prefer more prime season hiking. At a minimum ma…

PostQuote from hikerboy: “Yesterday I hiked in a park I'd never heard of. I'd seen it mentioned in a FB group so I decided to check it out, and I'm glad I did. It's called Trail View State Park.

I couldn't believe I'd never heard of it before. appalachiantrailcafe.n…
