Previous Updated included the following:
7 January 2023 update.

Updates included:

  • Some minor spelling corrections.
  • The reroute completed on 17 December. Adds (0.2) to the trail and skirts around Poor Mountain.
    This relocation was done because of the deeply eroded north slope of Poor Mtn where the trail was located on the fall line. The reroute takes a turn to the east at Sapling Gap, climbs briefly and then slowly descends to meet the original trail at Wide Gap. The northernmost 1,000 feet are very near the original trail but have the benefit of being sidehill trail which allows good drainage.
  • It will also include adding two hostels that I am coordinating with now.
    The Maine Roadhouse in Maine.
    The Stratton Motel in Maine.
  • Updated West Mountain Shelter to correct milage off trail (1.3E).
  • Updated hostel listing in the in the back to include hostels that got left out.
