Thanks for this. Yes, I'm hoping the water situation improves until then. As with any hiking plan, it could all change.

Very helpful. Going with Mountain Home. Thanks all!
Thank you, yes, I've done that. As I said, I was looking for insight from anyone who has done that section.
I'm looking to hike the Shenandoah section, Rockfish Gap to Front Royal, at the end of August. I'm looking at all the resources but wouldn't mind some first hand insights into where to leave my car...
I didn't think that hotel building was still there.
Thanks! Is that the same location at the Rockfish Gap Tourist and information center?
I'm planning a section hike from James River Footbridge to Rockfish Gap. Does anyone have any updated info on if it's safe to park at the Tourist Information Center or around the trailhead for 5...
Thanks! Appreciate it.
I had also contacted the Natural Bridge Trail Club about the parking near 501 at the bridge and they just recommended I not park there due to reports of vandalism. They didn't say when. That said,...
I'm planning a section hike from Catawba to Glasgow in early September. It looks like there is some parking at route US 501/Va.130. Can anyone verify this and if so, would it be safe for me to leave...
Thanks all. I'm going to check with Four Pines.
I'm planning to do a section from Pearisburg to Catawba in Virginia in mid October. I'm not sure if it's best to end at Four Pines Hostel and have my car there or park it at route 311. It'd be there...
Awesome! I'm planning to do a section in late May/early June. Bland to Daleville. How far is the Howard Johnson's from the trail?
Thanks! I'm also wondering if I should hike a little farther and stay at the Quarter Way Inn. I'm sure everything will be crowded.
I'll be hiking the section from Damascus to Pearisburg in late May. I'm trying to figure out the best spot to take a zero day and resupply midway. Is it easy to get a shuttle to Marion? Or just as...
Thanks all. I figure it'll be a crap shoot. The quilt idea might save some cash. What about a pad? I have a women's Therma-rest ProLite. Not the warmest.
I'm contemplating hiking a short section between Christmas and New Year's. I'd be starting in Damascus and ending I'm not sure, maybe Sugar Grove. Has anyone hiked this section during the winter? I...
Thank you everyone! This was the info I needed to decide on the hike. I've only done one 45 mile section in the winter before and my system was just enough but the elevation was lower. Roan was the...
I'm considering doing a section from Erwin, TN to Roan Mountain at the end of December. Anyone know if they get much snow down there around that time? I only have a 30 degree bag but I also have a 25...
I've got the same kind of folks worrying about solo hike. I am 27 year old female planning to start in late March 2012. Can I join your partnership involving periodic check-ins, etc?
