That’s it for the spring. I’m back home now after connecting up two previously done areas on the trail. My two trips in April/May made a section from Carvers Gap to Boots Off Hostel (US 321) – 48.1 miles, done over 5 days (9.6 mile per day avg). I now have done Spriger to I-40 (Standing Bear) – 241 miles; Erwin, TN to Port Clinton, PA – 876 miles; and Hanover, NH to Great Barrington, MA – 227 miles. That’s 1,344 miles, leaving about 850 miles to complete the trail. Next up is the 442 miles from Baxter, ME to Hanover, NH.
