I used your guide. It needs updated. Had no cell reception and a medical emergency! Your guide doesn't list medical facilities for Connellsville, PA. I stumbled upon a pharmacy walkin clinic after asking a local. They ripped me a new bum hole for not knowing about the real hospital ER few bocks away. I showed them your guide nothing listed. EVERY milepost should have some medical ER listing and address even if it is miles away from the trail so we can drag our lifeless bodies off the trail until we get a signal or find the facility. Shame on me for not doing a better due diligence.

Thank you for pointing this out; I have added Highlands Hospital to the Connellsville listings. That's how we keep our listings updated - feedback from people with firsthand experience. Because you passed it along here, future trail users will know that there IS a hospital in Connellsville.

Pretty rude of the pharmacy people to expect visitors to their town to know in advance where to find town services. I hope you found friendlier locals along the rest of your trip.

Happy trails!
