    The much awaited Appalachian Trail shuttle listing has been done and revised.
    In 2018 the ATC stopped providing a shuttle provider listing on their web site. They contacted WhiteBlaze, letting me know that they would no longer be providing a shuttle listing. They asked me if I would continue providing a shuttle provider listing and I gladly accepted.
    For almost a year now WhiteBlaze has been going through the old listing and contacting everyone they could. Those that could not be contacted were removed from the listing.
    I also changed the format of the listing. I tried to come up with an easier way to present the listing. I hope this helps everyone.
    If you would like to be added to the shuttle provider listing please contact us at the link at the top of the listing.

    How many section hikers and thru-hikers carry a GPS when you hike the Appalachian Trail and plot locations during your hike?
    Lets hear about it after you vote.

    Please go here to vote and discuss it, https://whiteblaze.net/forum/showthr...-s-using-a-GPS.
