Another question that it helps if you've walked it before. My wife met me at Hot Springs and we rented a canoe from an outfitter and spent a couple hours paddling this easy river to the take out point.

Quote from Wintergreen: “Thanks for the advice, Max Patch. Would you say having to time your hike to the post office hours is a consideration also? I would need to be back to my job in June 2024, but do realize that it could be a cold start. Beginning of March, perhaps? I believe I can do an overall 12 mile average, slower starting miles, picking up distance as I go along. That is 89 days to Harpers Ferry without zeros. We shall see how it comes together. More zeros due to weather with an early …

I used resupply boxes mailed to the P.O. on my thru and if I were to do another one I wouldn't do it again. Still had to go to the grocery store almost every single time anyway for cheese and bagels and whatever else looked good at the time. The only advantage the resupply boxes had was that it made my wife feel like she was part of my hike as she was the one preparing and mailing the boxes. And as one who considers backpacking a 3 season sport, I'd start a month later.

Quote from Astro: “318 curves in only 11 miles. images.app.goo.gl/nzGH67gWD3xwSbzF6 ” I bet almost every car has an annual event on the Tail of the Dragon. My Honda Element FB group has an annual ride the 2nd weekend in May; this year they had 140 Elements riding the Dragon together. Not anything I'd care to do but they seem to have fun and the event grows every year.

Quote from LIhikers: “Quote from max.patch: “It's getting really hot here so I wanted to add another quart Gatorade bottle to my dayhiking pack. When did they change the standard size to 28 ounces?! ” Years ago, where ya been ? ” Well, I guess I got my moneys worth outta those old bottles. Noticed the mouth size is even smaller. Wonder if that will be better or worse? Find out soon. I started out with wide mouth nalgenes years ago.

It's getting really hot here so I wanted to add another quart Gatorade bottle to my dayhiking pack. When did they change the standard size to 28 ounces?!

I can relate to the knee comment. I think the hike N off of Springer is superior on the BMT than the AT. The view from Owen Vista is superior to anything you'll see on the AT. The BMT intersects the AT just a short distance N of the Springer parking area on FS42 which makes a nice dayhike loop using the 2 trails.

I don't belong to that group but the post (125 responses) showed up in my feed this morning. I read about 5-10 of em and moved on. Ironic that MB said the spelling was phonetically correct. youtube.com/watch?v=pTP_EAWQkG0

I'm not going to say anything crazy like NJ was one of my favorite states, but I will say it was among the biggest nicest surprises I had on the trail. My image of NJ was based on years of SNL skits and it was much nicer that that. It's actually a nice place for a walk. But I still wonder what lies on the other side of the corridor.

I guess they are targeting the demographic that still reads magaizines. Lets see...85 year old Jane Fonda is probably on the short list for next years issue.

Quote from Sarcasmtheelf: “Quote from max.patch: “Another easy one. Everyone knows the answer is Sugarloaf. ” To be honest, I either never knew or forgot that Katahdin wasn't the original northern terminus. ” Nah, I was trying to be humorous. The only person who thinks Sugarloaf is the original terminus is the person who writes the questions.

Didn't he rob a bank and then hike the trail as a way to remain off the radar?

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Mike Lindell, better known as the MyPillow Guy, has disclosed that he is saving up to buy a Supreme Court Justice. “I’ve always wanted to own a Supreme Court Justice, but it seems like other guys have already snapped up the best ones,” he said. “I realized I’d better jump on this while there are still some left on the market.” Lindell bemoaned the fact that Justices such as Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch had already been purchased, but he acknowledged that they…

Congrats. There's still not enough hours in the day.

You'll love the stairs!

Another easy one. Everyone knows the answer is Sugarloaf.
