This book even helps Section Hikers

Having hiked over 650 A.T. miles, this book's predecessor has been a great help in planning my hikes and shuttles. I was hoping to get the new 2000 version of "Wingfoot's" book. My 1995 version has provided details about motels, restaurants, shuttles, hiking break points and things to ponder on The Trail. If you are going to hike any distance on The A.T., you need this book. Happy Trails, JASH

If you're gonna hike the trail, get this book!

Just want to put in my two cents about what Dan has done here. This book contains vital information to hiking the Appalachian Trail. Everything from which shop ownwers are the friendy ones, the which laundromats have dryers big enough for your sleeping bag. I highly recommend buying two copies of this book though. You'll obvoiusly want one copy while you're hiking, but the other should be left at home for your "support team". Additionally, the 2000 edition should be releases sometime in February.
