[at-l] Glencliff hostel

[gaudet@mediaone.net (Arthur Gaudet)]

I visited the Glencliff (NH) hiker hostel on Sat and looked for 
hikers. Hungry & Thirsty are doing a section from Hanover to Maine. 
Sooner Zooman has traveled from Manchester Center and is going to 
Katahdin, his third big sectionhike. All were resting a day before 
their climb of Moosilauke.

The hostel looks better and better every year! Lots of landscaping 
done since last year, a new fire ring, and a signin/charge system 
that I don't remember from last year. A volunteer was painting a sign 
with pictures of hikers & cyclists to help advertise the place.

Down the road a little I noticed, on Rt 118, that Applewood Farm 
appears to be for sale. This was an experiment in group living when I 
visited in '98. In '99 they created an organic farmstand, and last 
year were also selling baked goods, including bread. I thought they 
were doing well. Anyone else know about them? Mara?
