    Default Looking for Shuttle from Hot Springs (NC) to Green Corner Road - August 17th

    Peruse the link below in signature....As well Standing Bear Hostel, or laughing heart hostel and Bluff mountain if they still do shuttles for your shuttle options.

    Snowbird is a great spot with its funky satellite tower, Max Patch obviously being a highlight. FYI the shelter north of MP seems to always have a nuisance bear. Roaring fork I think it is?
    I did this stretch in a day in a half, I was also 25 at the time - If I had to do it again I would go northbound, night hike up to snowbird Friday night, sat night head to walnut mtn shelter, sunday end the hike at iron horse station grill for a beer and burger. HYOH

    Is that a recent change? It’s been awhile, but we certainly enjoyed breakfast there.

    We did the section from Brown Gap to Hot Springs in April. We stayed at Laughing Heart Hostel the night before and arranged a shuttle through them. We were able to leave our car just beside the hostel and the trail is literally about 100ft from the hostel.
