Anyone riding the RIT from Pleasant Hill to Windsor over Labor Day weekend? I tried to reserve one of Kims Cabins but she was booked for Saturday, guessing other riders beat me to it. My daughter and I will be on the trail Saturday and staying in Windsor. Hope to see some others on the trail along the way!!

You probably already know this, but there is no water along the RIT from P Hill to Chilhowee, roughly 28 miles or so. Plan accordingly. There is a little store in Chilhowee where you can get something to drink. After that, Leeton and Windsor, so no problem with hydration from Chilhowee to Windsor, but that leg from Chil to P Hill is a desert.

You might inquire what the Chilhowee Corner Store's hours are on the holiday weekend, just so you know ahead of time.

By the way, I was in Leeton the other day and the restrooms were open, but the water fountains were taped off and unavailable due to a boil order in Leeton. Not sure what the status is currently with water out there, but that was only a few days ago that I rode through.

Forgot to mention, the bathroom is open at Medford, but no water. Nice pit toilet facility, though.
