Closures or changes that effect the Appalachian Trail because of the Corona Virus

Published on 03-17-2020 00:44 Number of Views: 3357

The ATC is maintaining a Listing of A.T. Closures

The list is organized by Trail-wide and State sections. The agency information is updated regularly. Their listing summarizes agency alerts, more detailed information can be found at the links provided. Also be aware that states may have changing conditions for visitor and resident travel and these conditions may vary quite a bit from your home state. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with the additional travel and local regulations in order to be a better trail steward.

Thank you.

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.

I understand what you are saying, but to be clear the ATC does not and has not closed the Trail.
