2. What are your favorite things about visiting this part of the A.T.?
3. If you don't visit the trail (or don't visit as often as you'd like), why not?
4. Do you have ideas for balancing visitor experiences while conserving resources for us to consider? For example, ideas could be related to: camping, group camping, trails, parking, reservations, shuttles, accessibility, other A.T. resources, other regional recreation, etc.
