Late APR, what is typical weather and trail conditions like on the AT around Harpers Ferry (+/-50 MI North or South)?
Thinking about section hiking that area around then.
Thanks

+1 to Studlintsean. Weather this year has been a bit on the cool side though so make sure to check the forecast before you come and gear up appropriately.
2,000 miler. Still keepin' on keepin' on.
A few years ago I went from the northern end of SNP to the PA line in the middle of April. I had a few very windy cold days (upper 30s) and a few perfect days in the upper 60s. Odds are your weather will be on the positive side.
Pain is a by-product of a good time.
Just this week in Harpers Ferry - lows at night are 28-30 degrees. Highs around 50 during the day. No snow on the ground. There is a general warming trend - you can actually see some wildflowers on the trail.
