If you bring hunting gear the rangers will probably squawk since they don't want hunting near the trail. Have fun.

    Must have been a great experience. But I was joking about the hunting gear due to the moose tour. It's also not hunting season even if Moose had a hunting season.

    LOL. The reason I originally mentioned that is because we do have people traveling through on the trail who sometimes are armed (for personal protection), tho' everyone once in a while someone will decide to hunt which causes the rangers to flip out (at least in NY state) for obvious reasons. Either way do enjoy your trip up there, it's really pristine and all of the hikers you meet should be really cool people.

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.
