    The last 5 or so miles into Neels Gap REQUIRE a canister if overnighting.
    I'm afraid I can predict this is the thin edge of the wedge on the AT.
    Why?
    Because the bean counters will see a reduction in bear "incidents" in this 5 miles (because no one camps there) and extend the range.

    Hi ATM! (It does make it easier to tell you apart from Mike)
    Wrong Oz - sorry.
    This is the not so great and meek here.
    My sidekick is a bit less desireable than that one too.

    That's a closer pronunciation than some I've seen.

    I want to see that. The Trailer is great all by itself.

    Good evening Oz. I wonder just how many are actually complying with the cannister rule. I'd be willing to bet there are more than a few at the shelters without.

    Blaze is a female. Best Trail Dog in the world. I'm hoping you will get to meet her.

    Yeah but if Water Rat ever quits her job, we'll have a royal battle on our hands.

    I'd love to, but hasn't she ever had her own?

    Well this little black duck won't.
    I'm not intending to run foul of any regs because I would hate to have "issues".
    My visa might get revoked.

    When I got Blaze she was already 8 months and had been tortured by rotts. She used to jump the 6 foot fence and go visit the neighbors.

    To make a short story longer, she was picked up and sent to doggie juvi. She had to be fixed before they would let us get her back.

    Same here. I will do like the majority and hike through the area.

    Sad, because she seems lovely.
    I have a preference for female dogs as pets.
    More devoted. Probably true of most species ....
