Description


FRIDAY NIGHT:
Start at PA route 34 and hike south to James Fry Shelter (2 miles). The trip is a Friday nighter. We'll come up with a meet time, but it'll probably be about 6pm.

we could potentially be hiking in the dark on Friday night, please bring a headlamp or flashlight.

SATURDAY:
Hike from James Fry Shelter to Shippensburg Rd. (15 miles)

Upon the finish of this trip CrazyPace will have completed the Appalachian Trail within Pennsylvania, all 231 miles of it.

It will be a time of celebration and CrazyPace will have to do a victory dance, as well as spike his trekking poles in the trailhead parking lot on Shippensburg Rd.

This is a beautiful section of trail, one of the prettiest in Pennsylvania. Hopefully the fall colors will have begun to come out in force by then.

Highlights:
Pine Grove State Park
Micheaux State Forest
Pole Steeple
AT halfway point marker

Maybe we can talk CP into bringing Chase the Wonder Dog for this momentous trip.
