Talk about your fast replies! <<GRIN>>  

We just used the AT maps as well as the September 1992 issue of Backpacker
magazine.  It was well worth it, if you've got 2 weeks to get away that is.
The say that it can be done it 7 days, but somedays it's just too nice to
hurry....

The beginning, from both directions, has nice warning signs about how if
you're inexperienced, in poor shape, or have less than 10 days of food, be
forewarned; a tad melodramatic.  If you do go, DEFINITELY stop at Shaw's
boarding house in Monson, all you can eat at the end of the trail is very
tempting indeed.
 
Happy Hiking,

             Sparrow and Ronin
