Howdy,

I'll be hiking the LT north of Maine Junction this August. I'll be parking somewhere between Rutland and Killington, then hitching to the northern terminus and hiking sobo. With a nero day, I estimate this'll take 12 days, though I'm weekend hiking my local Finger Lakes Trail this spring and summer to get back into overnight shape, so the mileage is subject to change.

Anyway, can we have a discussion about parking options near the LT intersection with Rt 4?

Feel free to correct any of this, but what I've gathered so far is:
-Parking at the Inn at Long Trail for up to a week (for guests only?)
-Unmonitored parking across the street from the Inn
-Unmonitored parking at the trail crossing, across the street from Fox Commons Condos

Would anyone try to talk me into paid parking for security reasons? Or is "it's Vermont" the reply to that?

Thanks!

Brian
