I'm hiking from Gulf Rd (MA) to Stratton/Arlington Rd (VT) Parking spot. Leaving 23 AUG planning three nights, four days (Thurs - Sun).

Hi all, thank you for any advice in advance.

Doing my 4th section hike and doing this one alone. Starting on Gulf Rd in MA and probably making it to Stratton/Arlington Rd in VT this coming Thurs...

I WIN! I got tdoczi to agree with someone. I kid I kid. :) I have enjoyed the banter between everyone. Thank you all for being so engaging and helping my Monday pass quicker.

His battery was low at the last mark. I bet the battery died.

I've been quietly watching now since the beginning and I find it comical that we even question what he does. This is a different type of person doing something none of us could imagine ever happening...

This. Lessen the tension on the structured ends and tighten where the zippered rain fly is. After right, then go back to the triangle ends and tighten up the slack there too. I love mine.

Just in case anyone else might be around, starting at the Iron Bridge in Falls Village, CT. Weather calls for some possible storms, yipee. Planning on being out for four days.

See you out on the...

Connecticut is awash in them this year as well.

Yeah, the bugs are really the only thing that I would change about walking on the trail. Ticks and mosquitoes, blah. Went and bought a head net from ems. Now I got to find a nice cheap, funny looking...

So, walking for for days here in CT/MA section starting on Thursday. Looks to be hot, humid, and wet. No doubt super buggy. I've never considered the bug net on head thingy in the past, but have read...

Gear shakedown for upcoming 4 day trip. Backyard testing with the six year old. Going to try the new quilt/pad out and see how the REI Flash 45 feels all loaded up and ready to go. Might even get out...

Iron Bridge At Falls Village, ct that is.

I'm going from the iron bridge north starting in six days. Looks to be hot and wet then they say. I don't like this mosquito talk. Lol. Be safe all.

Depends on if a buddy of mine joins me or not, I'm giving that a 50/50 chance, and that may be 40/60 really. I've done as much as 18 and wouldn't want to do less than 8. Got a light pack and gear I'm...

I love this place. Stop by and read it numerous times a day, especially during the hiking season. Thanks to all of you for your wisdom and willingness to share here, I am leaving in a couple weeks...

It's official. May 28th early morning starting in Falls Village at the Power Plant (sexy) and going north for four days/three nights. Hope to see some of you out there if you are around.

Have a...

Is it? I know, lots of "how much do you spend" blah blah blah. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Just posted in here and found your post. Thinking of starting May 27th in Falls Village, CT and heading north until I stop sometime in the mid afternoon on the 31st to try and get back to the real...

Starting in Falls Village on the mid morning of May 27 and going north to where ever I may get to mid afternoon on the 31st. Not finalized but fairly certain if you would like to join in.

Just weighed my pack with 3L of water, hiking poles, everything in it ready to go for the morning for 4 days. Came in at 29 lbs total with 3L of water. Feeling pretty good about that as the water...

So, after a few months of serious planning and gear purchasing, me and a buddy are going to do our first true backpacking trip (3 or 4 days depending on pace) thru the CT portion of the AT trail. We...
