Description


I know this is last minute but I have had reservations at the shelter for a month and just had a few people bail on me.

The plan is to park at Newfound Gap and hike in to LeConte via 2.7 miles of the AT and 5.4 Miles of the Boulevard Trail to LeConte Shelter. Becouse before we were only going to have one car, we were going to hike out the way we came in, but if you would rather go out another way (such as Alum Cave Trail) with two cars, it would be an easy shuttle.


*****Update as of 7/31/08*****

I now have 7 spots in LeConte shelter (including mine) so more people can sign up.
