    Cool Greetings From Eastern PA

    Hi All,

    First time poster, long time reader. I never thought it would happen to me....

    Trying to Hang again. Last time I was too tall or the hammock was too short. I am still too tall, but I have a much longer hammock (11-footer).

    It ain't easy being circus tall (6'7"). Backpacker for 10 years. Hiked all of PA AT ...every rock covered inch.

    I am here to stand on the shoulders of giants (kinda sorta)

    Welcome from the northern side of the Valley! My kid keeps pestering me to hike the Lehigh Gap section again because she thinks it's fun.

    I have always enjoy Pinchot Trail. Many camp sites along Choke Creek. Beaver damns, fern meadows, blueberry bushes, Rhododendrons and Choke Creek Falls are just a few of the highlights. it is my favorite lazy 3 day hike.

    Welcome! I'm down in lower Bucks.

    Having hiked the entire PA AT, would you say the allentown area of the trail is good for a day hike?
