"Gina, Lon and I hiked the Appalachian Trail from Hogpen Gap to Sapling Gap where Gina turned back while Lon and I continued on the old route of the Appalachian Trail to the peak of Poor Mountain beside the trail. The reroute was completed December 2022, and the old route was still in good condition. On the way back Lon and I did a medium to heavy bushwhack to the peak of Strawberry Top, which was covered in thick briars. On the way out Lon and I did a light to medium bushwhack to the peak of Wolfpen Stamp while Gina waited on trail." — davidensley • Mar 25, 2024

"Solo hike on the Appalachian Trail from Hogpen Gap to Sheep Rock Top and back. Lunch at an overlook between Wolfpen Stamp and White Oak Stamp Gap. A SOuthBOund backpacker came by while I was eating, and he said he hoped to camp on Blood Mountain tonight. A NOrthBOund backpacker came by with two dogs as I was getting back on the AT. Did not seen anyone after that. Scouted future bushwhacks to bypassed peaks along the way, but no bushwhacking this day. Looks like the AT used to go over the top of Poor Mountain but now goes around the east side, similar to Strawberry Top." — davidensley • Dec 13, 2023
