I saw numerous odd things while passing through trail towns on my AT thru-hike. This live bait vending machine was beside a gas station in Delaware Water Gap, PA, right on the river at the New Jersey State line. The people there were very hospitable, and we stayed in a church-run hostel that has free showers and laundry.#hiking

A vending machine designed to dispense live bait, featuring a colorful illustration of fish in an underwater scene on the front panel. The word "LIVE BAIT" is prominently displayed in yellow text. The vending machine is situated outdoors next to a brick building, with trees and bushes visible in the background. There is also a trash bin and a partially visible ice machine nearby.
