Hello friends and buddies!

I am in the planning phase for a hiking trip along the Appalachian Trail. It's something I've been wanting to do for a while, and I feel like if I don't start planning it now, it may never happen.

The trail takes 4-6 months to hike and is about 2,160 miles long. It runs from Georgia to Maine (if you didn't know that you may want to research it a little before saying you'd like to do it). I'd like to plan for it to take 6 months because there are side trails to vistas, national parks along the way, and some cities we may want to stop to see.

I have set the date for March 1, 2009 as the start date, and it would run through late August 2009.

Let me know your level of interest (i.e. sounds like fun, count me in, or I'm dying to do it and I'll stalk you forever if you don't let me come!) and your availability.

 

ALSO if you would like to meet us for a portion of the trail because you cannot commit to 6 months, that would be awesome too! If you would rather hike with us for a day or two weeks, we'd be happy to meet up with you and hike for a bit. Please let me know!
