I will be leaving for Springer in 17 days. I was advised by the folks at the ATC to consider doing a leap frog over the mid atlantic so I could get to Katahdin before they close it to hikers in October. What I decided to do is to start at Springer hike until mid June the head to Monson and do the 100 mile wilderness and on to Katahdin. I will take a shuttle back to Monson and head south to where I left the trail in June.
I am looking for a recommendations for a place in Monson to hang my hat before heading into the wilderness.
