I prefer drink 1.5L take .5L—where safe.

I’m down or up for it, whatever the term is.

At least we have LaBonne’s….

But ultimately:

Probably would get dropped right at Gapland Rd, where Gathland is, and hike north from there. Rocky Run about 5 miles north of that. Further along the way, see the original Washington Monument,(9...

It means just what you say to me. My best bit of dimensional lumber was a 15 x 12. Rewarded myself with a mile or so off trail to South Mountain Creamery. Still did 31 on trail miles that day,...

Me too. Not an easy job, moderating. Thanks Attroll and crew

Well that’s a heck of a tale.

Well if we cut off our elbows, we can save our pads and cut worn weight too!

There must be some right around there as there were some leftover seekers when I stayed there, and you aren’t going to do that from either of the of the overlooking heights. Water from the ponds. ...

…and if it isn’t…oh well.

I’d rather hike stupidly on my own than smartly with Zuck.

White Blaze dying? I think not!

See Gambit’s new thread on struggle!

Thanks for starting an interesting convo

If my prior seemed flippant, apologies.

Two solutions to the 3 day Gambit Blues (cue a minor key bluegrass wailer)

WB provided great support/escape for me in those dark days.

Agree with Dan Roper that the mods...

5-6 regrets in 5,000 miles? Congrats!

Funny, I checked the Reddit for the AT just after this and the Moderator is posting a sort of AT wiki, with 2 links to WhiteBlaze. ...

I started in 2020, after lurking for a few months. I think there was more activity during Covid, as all but the most determined reined in their hiking. Also agree on the seasonality, which makes...

Can't remember that spot, but do remember several nice campsites along the ridge from 611 to Helvey's Mill. I'd assume all were dry, so bring water

Amtrak can get you reasonably close ( long shuttle) in mid to north Virginia and right to it in Harpers Ferry with a connection in DC.

I do what Justhike does. Except I use leaf instead of a straw.

Pack Rat is a great guy for a shuttle around there. Out of Gatlinburg. 865 469 1707. I used him in 2021, so not sure if he still does it.

1.6 miles south of Yellow Creek Gap there is a great...
