I'm doing the 105 mile section of the LT that is contiguous with the AT in a few weeks. My time frame is 8 full hiking days. I have read the 2-3 threads here from others who have hiked it in the fall.
Has anyone else done this section in fall, or anytime for that matter? Any words of wisdom? How would the terrain for this section compare to the mountain west in terms of difficulty, for those who have hiked both?
A little background:
Live and hike at high elevation regularly
Run/lift/hike 5-6 days a week. No issues with a 12 mile day + pack at altitude.
Lightweight gear (20-24 lbs total pack weight)
Plenty of 1-3 night backpacking experience, but none beyond this length.
NoBo. Plan to make 1 resupply in Manchester, VT. Plan to average 13-15 mile days.
Thanks!
