[at-l] Outfitters (Was something about Yahoo Groups)

[icw39@ncfreedom.net (Clark)]

Well, I don't know if these are gonna be on any of your routes, but here
are a couple I've not seen mentioned:

1)  Outfitters at Harper's Ferry - great family run store; great town;
good selection and they'll go out of their way to help . . . i ordered
some goods from them over the telephone in Feb. of 2001 - they
remembered me by name when I walked in the store four months later! :)

2)  Blue Ridge Outdoors - stores in Roanoke and Blacksburg,VA . . . Bill
Wilson, the manager of the Roanoke store gave a number of us 2001 hikers
a ride all the way from there down to Trail Days, and even put Leif and
me up at his home for the night!

Lastly, I agree re Campmor - awesome catalogs, awesome web site, great
prices, awesome stores!
