In reply to Jared. I lived in Vermont for a few years and LOVED the Long Trail. I agree that June and July might not be the perfect time to for a thru hike, but I guess I was lucky enough to not be bothered to much by the notorious black flies on early-summer day hikes. I did update the suggested hiking period per your recommendation, though. There's nothing like a Vermont fall!

I have done parts of the Long Trail, I plan on a NOBO thru hike this September. June and July are definitely not the best times for it though: the black flies are biblical in number and ferocity, and the mosquitoes are even worse! Fall is the best time, October especially for the foliage! That’s just my opinion though! Thanks for giving the LT and VT some love!
