LM: Section 4 of the Tuscarora Trail, Gore, VA to Hampshire Grade Road (23.5 mi)

Details

And our pursuit of section-hiking the Tuscarora Trail goes on!

I'm going to do this as an LM section, with just one night out so that more people can participate, and get a taste for the TT! Another advantage will be that we will be set to reach Pennsylvania in Section 5, I believe. This is the week before the Death March / Sufferfest ... so we'll want to take it easy on this relatively gentle section.

We'll meet up at Vienna, 8am, Saturday morning, establish the car shuttle, and start hiking north from Gore, Virginia. Sunday, we'll conclude in the afternoon at Hampshire Grade Road, reverse the shuttle, visit a pub, and head home.

The relevant map is PATC, Map L (http://www.patc.net/PublicView/Shop_at_the_PATC_Store/BrowseCategories/Core/Orders/product.aspx?catid=5&prodid=19). Buy it!

New people are welcome. In fact, I encourage applicants to come out for this one: it's a good choice. I'll take 10, so long as I have the seats in the cars!

This should, I hope, be lovely springtime weather!
