I was wondering if there was a trail angel list that is being worked on for the Florida Trail? I have seen a lot of people out on trail this hiking season, and did not notice a list made already.  I know the Florida Trail is not as avidly hiked as the Big 3/smaller LDH trails, but if you would like to make a list, I would like to volunteer myself as a FT trail angel. Thank you so much.

Message Body: Hello!
I have been hosting AT hikers at my home in Huntly, Va for two years.  I post on the Facebook page of “Women Hikers of the Appalachian Trail”, and I provide sleeping quarters, laundry, dinner al fresco, swimming pool and p/u/ d/o at HWY 522 near Front Royal/Huntly.  Hikers can find me on Facebook @ Barry McAlister.   My email is [email protected].  Usually, I like to get a text a day before a hiker needs a pick up, but I have been able to accommodate last minute.  A small donation always appreciated.

Greetings!

I would like to have Clair Tappaan Lodge (www.clairtappaanlodge.com)  added to the Trail Angel List.  We have hosted many thru-hikers in the past.  The Lodge (operated much like a hostel) and it's regular guests love having the thru-hikers here.  We have overnight accommodations in single gender dorms or group rooms, with family style meals included in our reasonable rates.  For a small day-use fee showers, hot tub and laundry machines are available.  The Lodge is located 1.5 miles from the trail on Donner Pass in California.

Thank You,

Peter Lehmkuhl
