Thank you Mountain Squid

We're over 200 on the spreadsheet. WOOHOO!!

There are alot of hikers in the 'unsure' column and alot of question marks. If you firm up your info and would like it updated on the spreadsheet let me know.

Hope everyone is enjoying the planning process, including the purchase of gear...

See you on the trail (next year),

We're over 300 now (302 to be exact)..........If you want to update anything just let me know.

Time is getting short for everyone (and very short for some)...you'll be on the trail before you know it.

Don't forget some sunscreen (until the leaves start appearing anyway).

Good Luck and Have Fun!

See you on the trail,

Ummm... I'm not sure if I fit into the 2010 thru hiker listing. By the time the 2011 thru hiker listing is started, I'll be on the trail. Since I'm starting in 2010 but finishing in 2011, maybe I'll be in both? In any case....

Chris (don't have trail name but you can put: "A Guy Called Zoooma")
SOBO - Direction
September 23 - Estimated Start Date
Yes - Approach Trail - yes or no
Fall 2010 -> Winter 2011 - additional info

you didn't ask location but everyone has one, hopefully it's not automatically entered 'cause mine would say:
"Homeless former Alaskan from NJ"
but I'm currently located in: Charleston, SC
(if it's an automatic dealie then I'll have to change my info.)

I'll be hiking for charity -- to raise money to help give people in Haiti clean water to drink. Haiti's the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere and it's devastating to see how so many are forced to live down there. They need all the help they can get :)

Over 400 and still counting...

Looks like 1 Mar is gonna be crowded on Springer...http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-happy039.gif

The six that started in Jan, are they still out there???? Any problems with the weather?

I've been listening to "Chef Rich"'s trailphone updates. He's just north of Franklin this week. Talks about no snow to knee deep drifts, depending on which side of a mountain he's on. Orignially he mentioned having the trail to himself, doesn't sound like he's seeing many thu-hikers in the shelters with him.

453...

The next busy day looks to be 15 Mar (12 starting) and after that April Fools Day (13 starting).

Any more updates?

See you on the trail,
