I'll be there! My good friend is running and I'm supporting (in warm clothing).

I have the original Exos 46, used it on my '09 thru, and last year and this year (back to back thrus, currently at Harpers Ferry)) I'm using the ZPacks arc haul.
I agree with what Water Rat wrote...

Thanks all. Had a great time and it was wonderful to meet everyone.

Sounds good, and yes i know park pretty well. Looking forward to it. Thanks!

Hi all, sorry so late in the game but I've been hiking up in Vermont and missed much of this thread. I was going to be heading back down to NYC on Friday but I would love to spend a couple nights in...

Hey elf - yeah it's me. Had a great hike last year. HF to Katahdin and HF to Damascus. Probably doing Springer to Damascus in Feb but, like I wrote, might turn it into another thru. Hope all is well...

NYC but moving to Vermont in next month or two so it's easier to get to AT and LT. unless I thru hike again this year. [emoji848]

I used Tumblr briefly as a trail journal during several shake down hikes many years ago, but not on my thru-hikes because it didn't meet my needs. The main problem for me is for people to comment or...

I don't know the TT, but I used an older version of the Lunar Solo on thru hikes of the AT, JMT, and LT before retiring it for a hammock this year. needless to say, I like it a lot. I feel like there...

Thanks for the reply and information!!

What are options for laundry in Hanover? I've searched and can't find anything. I should be there in 2 or 3 days and I'd really like to wash my stuff. Thanks!!!

Is her crazy old neighbor still alive and there? On my 2009 thru-hike I was alone in the barn when he ran his mower for 3 hours starting around 4:30 AM. He even stopped to refuel it. Haha. Freaked me...

Shoot me a PM. I live in Manhattan, have a car, and I hike most weekends at least one day when I'm not working on special projects or traveling. I've also hiked this section several times and am...

At the Cascade Brook clearing above GWLake there is a side trail that goes toward the lake (kinda follows AT south, but below the ridge). Anyone know where it goes? Maybe an old AT route? Thanks!

I made one out of Tyvek last year for my Long Trail thru hike; worked well and I'm still using it. I'll look for the pattern and other info I have about it and send you more info tomorrow. Traveling...

October 9th leaving from Bear Mountain, NY going north to VT9, Bennington, VT.

Agree with those who say you should definitely understand why your knees are sore. Self diagnosis isn't always the best solution. Having said that, I will second the vote for Tommy Copper sleeves. ...

Came across this listing today on Zillow while looking for a house near the trail. States it is 'for sale by owner'.
...

Another vote for starting at Delaware Water Gap or Bear Mtn NY and going north. Love this section, which is a beautiful hike in the fall with a nice mix of terrain.

Thanks for the specific info! I'm now all set. Will hit the trail soon.

Looking for a shuttle from Burlington to Journey's End or somewhere near there on Friday August 30th or Saturday, August 31st for my SOBO E2E hike.

I have a call into the GMC for their list and...

In 2009 I started in late Feb. and on Jun. 15th I woke up in a hotel room in Kent, CT, which turned out to be one of the few dry nights I had from NY to VT. :)

SMD Lunar Solo. Still using my 2009 model I took on my 2009 AT thru and my 2012 JMT thru. Never had a problem with it. I've figured out how to set it up on platforms, sand, and rocky terrain. I've...

Exactly what Codger said. Stopped there once - never again.

That entire hike is a fun section. Even with half a lung you should be able to complete DD to BD in a day. I always sing The Gambler when I hike - know when to walk away know when to run. Pick up the...
