Well that stretch is what we are talking about. (100 mile) you are right its mostly in that area. but i live in New England and hike all 5 states often, love vermont, and while vermont has many boggy, rotted out and rooty areas on the AT, i think it has some very nice stretches of trail to balance it out. The 100 mile blows all the way.
I guess i should just stop being a pu$$y and quit bitching.
