Hello everyone! I stumbled upon this site recently...decided I should properly introduce myself. I'm a hiker from central PA...have done many miles on the AT, PCT and a number of "lesser known" trails. I currently help maintain over 20 miles of trails in the Tuscarora State Forest and am a past(soon to be future)maintainer of the Link trail. Thank you to all maintainers for your hard work and thank you to all hikers for keeping the trailway alive!

Nothing says hard-core like a well-groomed footpath with plenty of trail markers to keep from getting lost.

Thanks for your work lordlink. Disregard Mutt. He's a troll wannabe.

I gotta say...every time I hike I find myself doing trail work. It's tough on a
backpacking trip but I can't resist getting those "trippers" off the trail!

Yeah, you wouldn't want to scuff up your trail-fashionable $400 pair of boots on "trippers".

Welcome! Looks like Mutt has the baptism by fire thing in full swing so it shouldn't too bad from here on out. I think the official membership is granted after being called a troll 500 times.

Enjoy the indoctrination process!

I appreciate it too until it becomes an OCD issue. Then i think the person might need help.

Got Luvox?

I sometimes solo, sometimes with my kids,sometimes with the wife and sometimes with freinds! Btw...my trail shoes are sneakers. Who needs boots for PA rocks? You gotta be comfortable!

Like I said...I'm new to this trail talk thing...got my username screwed up! On the AT I got the trail name "Mary Ellen"...not because of my long curly locks or my big blue eyes...just because I said "goodnight John-boy" in a shelter one night! It stuck and there it is! Gotta love them Walton's!
