PA > Old Logger's Path in March

[Saint Francis]

I'm in the planning stages of a 3-day/2-night solo trip on the OLP. I've consulted lots of online resources, but most of the write-ups were from trips that were either over the summer or fall. I am wondering if anyone has experience on this trail in March. The long-range weather forecast is for warm, but possibly wet weather. I'll use wisdom and ignore those until time gets me closer to my departure date.

Anything you can share to help me prep for this trip? I did a thread search and there was a great trip report (sorry, I forget who posted it). I'm looking for more info, if possible.

Thanks!

Have you tried this particular site:

I have always found the write ups are well done and the maps are very handy to take along. I have only done OLP (I think it was in April) once as a overnight and it rained the whole second day. I am not sure which way you are going(clockwise or counter), but there is a fantastic campsite at Yellow Dog Run/Rock Run that should not be missed. Have fun and bring something good to keep you dry.

The Hammock Backpacking Group on Meetup is doing a 3 day, 2 night on OLP in early April, if that interests anyone.

I am not familiar with Meetup. I just created a user account, but I am not sure how to find the HBG you refer to.

I don't think much of meetup.com as a website, but here's the Old Logger's Path page:
