[at-l] Enhancing the AT Blaze

[rickboudrie at hotmail.com (rick boudrie)]

What's so bad about having a hard time finding the trail at night?

If I am not mistaken, that's what darkeness is all about-- not being able to 
see stuff so good.

My problem (Ok, one of them) is when they lower the blazes for the winter 
hiking season.  Fortunately this problem is corrected each spring.

I noticed a more than a few bright eyes on the "Old Jackson Road" section of 
the AT leading out of Pinkham Notch a couple weekes ago.  Personally I 
thought them to be rather ugly.   Then again I think that the blaze orange 
survey tape that gets left behind for many season is too.  I suppose I'll 
get over it.

At least in the North East the double blazes are directly on top of one 
another.  Those offset blazes are enough to make anyone mad.
