    Week long backpacking trip in Mid Atlantic... Looking for suggestions

    My friend and I are doing a week long trip in late spring. We are trying to do something other than the AT but within 4 hours drive of Baltimore. We are in good shape and average 15 miles per day. Probably looking to have 6 whole days on the trail and a resupply town would be a bonus.

    We were thinking perhaps Dolly Sods or Tuscarora trail. Mainly we are looking for some good sights in a new place.

    Thanks for any suggestions.

    If you're considering PA then I would suggest the following:

    Black Forest Trail - 42 Mile Loop - supposed to be tough but a great hike

    Loyalsock Trail - 60 miler
    see you on the trail,
    Mike

    I've hiked this one before it's pretty awesome I don't quite remember how far it is from Baltimore it might be a little past your driving distance but if you're willing to do it it's a pretty awesome hike
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.
