HIker Feed - Appalachian Trail

imported
#1

Some friends and I are hosting a hiker feed on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia where the AT crosses, just south of Thunder Hill Shelter. June 13, 2007 from 4:00 PM about 7:00 PM or until the food runs out. It’s in honor of The Loon, AT trail legend, hiked '90, 95,2000, 2005 plus major sections many other years. Unfortunately, Loon won’t be there because he’s on the PCT, but we wanted a theme, so the Loonster Feed is it I guess. We hope to have a big crowd, so if you’re on the trail and see this and think you can make it to the BlueRIdge Parkway by June 13, please spread the word to others that might make it too. We promise lots of good food!

As past thru hikers you should know by now, If you want to go feed some hikers on that day for a few hours, why are you posting it here? JUST DO IT!
Do you actually think anyone is going to hike many miles out of there way to make it on your short time schedule?
By posting this on a website, you may be attracting more car supported hikers than you want, and be out of food faster than you think, …can I bring my dog too?

Everyone would be better off spending your spare time by joining a local maintaining AT trail club, and the time spent will help ALL the AT hikers for future generations. Instead of just feeding a few hikers for a couple hours at a roadside on one day.
Join an Appalachian trail maintaining club, and help EMPTY a privy someday, instead of always just filling them up.
Have A Safe Hike

John Stempa What are you thinking.
Someone could see this post and go just a little fearther each day to make and extra meal. I don’t know anyone that doesn’t love their Trail Angels but you. Maybe you and you dog should just pass the Trail Magic and keep going except you DOG probly as enough sence to appreciate it and want to stop . Maybe even bite your leg off for not stopping. You are the first in History I’ve ever heard of criticize Trall Magic or Trail Angels which are really Real Angels. Free Country Freedom of speech And Freedom for Ignorance . Lets Vote 1 to how many Million Hikers.
PLEASE DON"T MESS THINGS UP FOR EVERYONE ELSE THAT APPRECIATE IT. Did you think that made you look Smarter. I’m not a rocket scientist , but I can’t make any sense out of your whole post. If I where you and you go looking for a hiking partner don’t tell them your name .You wouldn’t get a partner or they’re going for a good reason.
You Hike Very Safe
