I'm now in North Adams Massachusetts headed south and wondering about availability of water along the trail down to Delaware Water Gap. Have recent rains eased the drought? People in Vermont kept saying there was a drought there, but there was plenty of water and several ice-cold stream fords. In fact much of the "trail" in Vermont was merely a series of cold creeks and mud puddles.
By the way, the Price Chopper and Friendly's restaurant near the trail in North Adams are closed, and the oriental buffet is closed for lunch Tuesdays. But at least the laundry is open, and the Y has free showers.
