  • Big views
  • Safe for solo female hiker
  • High likelihood of meeting thru HIKERS passing thru
  • Within 3-4 hours from Boston airport (not a must)
  • Ability to stop and resupply and an overnight in nice town


I realize these things might not all be possible but you get the idea? I wouldn't mind missing the black flies I've heard about either 

My mileage will depend on elevation changes and pack weight but I'm thinking 5-15 miles/ day? That said, it's the experience I'm seeking vs total miles.

All replies will be greatly appreciated!

Melanie
