[pct-l] American Discovery Trail

[rellinwood at worldnet.att.net (Robert Ellinwood)]

Ken, 

I realize you're planning on walking the ADT soon.  Some questions:

What's the current percentage on tarred roads, gravel roads, 2 tracks, and
actual trail now?  

Do you think a person could actually hike it without previously planted
water caches in Nevada, as you have done?  Back when Bill and Laurie Foot
did it on bicycles, I wondered why they placed the route there.

I understand there is a middle section where it splits into two routes that
join later. Which are you doing?

Finally, is it still true it goes right through the middle of some cities?

Thanks,  Bob
