What did you come up with as far as the parking and shuttle situation? It appears that the hostiles close in October so I was wondering if the shuttles do to. I wanted to start in Harpers Ferry at...

Wow, Tipi! You did 15 days on the trail? How much food did you have to carry? I can hardly fit 5 days worth of food in my pack.

Tipi, I love the pics. How long did you carry those eggs on the trail before you ate them. Sure looks good though, you make a fine argument for a stove. :)

Thanks for the quick reply. I will make sure to note them in my book. Warm regards.

I will be doing this same section in November. I was wondering if some of these sources get shut off in the fall or winter?

Don't worry everybody, I’m not going to eat the animals out of house and home, I’m just looking for a little knowledge in case I need it along the trail. It’s also illegal to pick the plants in most...

I have seen several sources talking about edible plants along the AT, but none that are that complete. Do any of you have a good source for edibles along the AT. I would not mind doing a little...

I guess this question is for you former thru-hikers, but I would be glad to hear input from anybody. How many days worth of food do you carry before resupply (town or mail drop)? Other than the 100...

Probably the best advice so far.

I still can't shake the Boy Scout in me. When I was a lad we spent many nights on the trial and never carried a cook stove. If we wanted a hot meal, we started a fire. I know thats not always...

I have the S Memo app on my Galexy. It works in airplane mode. I will just have to see if it will copy and paste for upload to the journal page. Thanks for the input gang.

I would suggest REI. They have some of the most detailed maps of the different sections of the trail. If you have a smart phone I would also suggest the AT Hiker 5 app. It is a detailed map stored...

Thanks for the great article, Mags. Also thanks for the heads up on the web page Packit Gourmet. Love that web page. It is now my primary source for yummy trail food, hot or cold. Waiting for my...

I didn't think about voice typing then upload later, thats a great idea. My fat fingers would lock up if I had to type a whole journal entry on my Droid. Thanks for all the input gang.

I have been reading lots of journal entries in preperation for my thru in 2015. I notice that it seems that some people update almost every day. If your on the trail for a week at a time, how do...

Amazing food for thought. Thank you all for the helpfull information. I have a section hike in Maryland coming up this November. Since I already have a selection of Mountainhouse picked out I...

I have read many discussions on mail drops. I have not decided if I will be doing mail drops but I have discovered that I can get just about anything I need via Amazon Prime. My phone even has an...

During my research to come up with the stove that was right for my needs I started seeing some mention on the web of a few hikers that didn't carry a stove at all. Im starting to maybe think the...
