 get someone to take you to the Mountain Adventures store, about a four-day
 hike north of Springer (but only an hour by car). It's the best gear store
 for thruhikers on the east coast, and they'll fit you with the ideal pack
 for your needs, and save you a lot of grief. >>

Go to Mountain Crossings at Walasi-Yi Center. On the AT at Neels Gap.
