    Sounds like a good trip, but I am actually going to attempt Pinchot this weekend. Hopefully the weather holds just a bit…

    Tom,

    Don't throw me under the bus just yet! Work plans have changed – and may still change. That may afford me some extra time to get school work done ahead of time.

    No promises yet, but I may surprise you all. What are the plans (meeting place, time?)

    I'm waiting to see if anyone can commit, but I think we can be flexible to accomodate driving distance and hiking speed. An end-to-end isn't too hard along the AT here in NE PA since we can shoot between gaps on Rt. 80 pretty easily.

    Sat. night is best for me.

    Tom, I'm not sure. I may be able to go. Both dates are up in the air for me – nothing definite either way yet.

    I'm afraid I can't make it on the 26th–I'll try to catch up with you guys on the next trip.

    I'm not quite PA, but within a 20 minute drive, north of Baltimore.

    Maryland doesn't have much in the way of backpacking outside of the 42 mile AT section and Green Ridge State Forest (surprisingly decent) so I'm up in PA frequently.

    I'm interested in doing the Black Forest Trail in northern PA at some point this year. My wife and I drove up there a few summers ago to do a section of the trail but she suffered from an asthma attack right at the start and we had to bail. It's been on my mind ever since. Any interest amongst PA'ers here?

    Russell, I would be interested. Keep me posted on when you would want to go–right now I am busy with soccer coaching and Cub Scouts, but soon will have some free time.

    I've been wanting to tackle that trail for some time now.

    Tom, Brian, Tom,

    Anything happening soon? I can probably get away for a dayhike this weekend, by not for an overnight. Any takers?

    How does an early morning (sunrise type) hike sound? You pick where. I'm in Nazareth, 10 to the AT and Rt. 22. I think availability and timing is more important than what view we'd get, but open to anything.

    Tom and I are meeting at 7am at the Eckville Shelter/Hawk Mtn Road. We'll be hiking from PA 309 back down to Hawk Mtn Road.

    Any other takers?

    We're meeting at 7 am in the parking lot, and will shuttle back to the Rt. 309 crossing. Hope some of you other PA lightweight hikers can make it.

    Brian,

    Right now, I can't do Friday night – I have a work commitment.
