Hogg Country

Terms of Service

Last updated: May 17, 2026

These terms apply to Hogg Country public content and Scout planning tools, including the Scout ChatGPT app. By using these tools, you agree to use them as planning aids, not as a substitute for judgment, official sources, or emergency services.

Planning Aid Only

Scout provides source leads, candidate trail context, and planning scaffolds for Appalachian Trail conversations. It does not guarantee current conditions, route safety, legal camping availability, water reliability, shuttle availability, lodging, store hours, permits, fees, or emergency response.

Field Responsibility

You are responsible for verifying live weather, closures, water, trail conditions, rules, permits, town services, transportation, and safety information before using any plan outdoors. Conditions can change quickly, and the app may contain incomplete or outdated information.

No Emergency Services

Scout cannot contact emergency responders, monitor your location, send rescue alerts, or provide medical advice. In an emergency, contact local emergency services or use your dedicated emergency communication device.

Read-Only ChatGPT App

The current Scout ChatGPT app is read-only. It does not save plans to a Scout account, modify Hogg Country content, publish content, send messages, make purchases, or push notifications to devices.

Content And Availability

Hogg Country may change, remove, or update content and tools at any time. The tools are provided as-is without warranties of accuracy, availability, fitness for a particular trip, or uninterrupted service.
