[at-l] Outfitter Finds---

> I'm in Knoxville visiting our son and daughter-in-law.  This is a great
> place to prowl around for gear.  In Blue Mountain Outfitters (I think
> that's the name), I found Alpine Aire Foods Self Heating Meals.  So help
> me, you open the bag, and the food heats itself.  Most bizarre thing I've
> seen in years.  (I'm rather easily amazed.)  This stuff is heavy, though,
> like 12 oz. for what looked to be one meal.
>
> Then, I found a book that looks pretty good, but I've never heard of it
> before.  It's Exploring the Appalachian Trail, by Doris Gove.  I would
have
> bought it except that it covered only the area that I've finished.
>
> Third, what kind of cars do you drive to the trailhead?  What I really
want
> to know is, do you use 4WD, have you ever been to trailheads on the AT
> where you felt they were necessary, will I ever need 4WD or will my trusty
> minivan do the job the whole way to Maine?
>
> Thanks, guys.  I love reading your wit and wisdom every day.
