Hi
I'm driving from Toronto on May 15 to meet a friend in Fort Montgomery, where we will hike together until about Kent CT. I am struggling with what to do with my car. I have never done the AT - so I have no context for parking, distances to/from trail heads, etc. I have posted my specific questions in the "Shuttle" forum (i.e., do I park in Kent and find a shuttle to Bear Mountain - or vice versa). What I'm interested in from my fellow sisters is what (if anything) I should be aware of (as a solo woman) when looking for a shuttle service?
I am a total believer in the great nature of people - and have a sense that the AT Angels & supports are inherently benevolent and cool. But am I dreaming in technicolour?
Any advice and insight would is greatly appreciated (including any leads on female drivers between Bear Mountain & Kent CT).
Thanks everyone!
