Good morning, everybody!
After a quick search here that resulted in nothing newer than two years old, I have to ask: Has anybody hiked sections of the IAT recently? I just saw this article yesterday, and the pictures BLEW MY MIND! It's about a work trip on a loop trail near the Newfoundland section of the IAT, and those mountains.... oh man!
The main IAT website has precious little information for prospective hikers (or maybe that's just "less than I want"), so I always assumed it was still pretty far from complete. But at last summer's ATC Biennial Conference in Castleton I talked with a few of the IAT folks and they said it was a great backpacking trip. Most notably, they said they'd recently completed a side trail near Baxter Park that creates an opportunity for a 90-mile loop hike! Anybody know about this? If I can find info on it, I think that would be a heck of a trip for next fall.
So many trails to hike....
