Appalachian Trail planning




So of course it's been a few months since I've posted which means I'm getting the itch to travel again. I really have the urge for a great adventure though (no more cruises for me). You may have heard me talk about my dreams of hiking the Appalachian Trail. The trail is over 2100 miles long and goes from Georgia to Maine. Eventually, I would like to thru hike the AT, but this summer, I think about 150-200 miles will be good enough. So I'll be hiking the portion that runs through Shenandoah National Park.

Potential dates: July 21-Aug 2

Still looking for hiking buddies...
