Whichever, as long as you teach her to hike. We need more female hikers in the clique.

There is a cross connector on the AFT, the Shingle Mill Trail, so you can bail or shorten the hike if you need too.

Jmitch's description says "begin Fri afternoon/early evening." If anyone is interested in starting earlier, like around noon, I am all for that.

There's a noob signed on over on the Other Side.

That would do him in too.

WTH, it's not fun unless someone cries like a little girl, right?

Nah, I didn't do that. I was quoting from someone else's trip report.

Besides...outdoing Fritz, that's like fallin off a wagon.

Probably camp at Smays Run. Nice meadow for camping there.

If we go counterclockwise, probably Rock Run.

memo to brain: dig out your gaiters.
Creek Dancer
8:24:20 AM
11/10/08

Feet might get wet, but there are boardwalks. I don't think we'll need gaiters!

The whiteblaze post above brings up a good point- if we camp at Smays Run, we'll pass all the best vistas Fri evening/night. So we might go counterclockwise to Rock Run so we can save the views for the end, depending on weather.

Looking forward to this trip.
