Many folks like to give "Trail Magic" to hikers on our trails.  "Trail Magic" is the term for unexpected acts of generosity on the trail.  Trail magic originated on the Appalachian Trail, and often includes drinks, food and other goodies handed out to backpackers.  This is generally a good thing.  However, it's a good idea to follow some simple rule to ensure that your well-meaning generosity will not cause litter, attract vermin, etc.

Appalachian Trail Conservancy has issued some guidelines on trail magic on the trail.  Follow THIS LINK to find them.  Remember that the BEST trail magic is helping to maintain the wonderful trails we all hike on.  Click on Trail Work to find out about helping out CVATC.
