Another Adkins Update

The Charleston (WV) Daily Mail of 1 May 2007 has an article titled "Faux-spring leaves hikers feeling the cold after they shed their gear" by Leonard Adkins that serves as the newest update on the intentionally slow thru-hike that he, his wife, and their dog are making of the Appalachian Trail this year.

Adkins writes about the snow that followed the warm weather, and how hikers coped after having mailed home their heavier winter gear. The Adkins clan dealt with it by flip-flopping to Damascus and hiking south for a while when the snow hit around Erwin, TN on 7 April.
