I am preparing to hit the New Mexico/Mexico border to start the CDT this coming May 2013. All systems are go at this point. I will be 60 yrs old and ready to walk. On my days off I work at a local Walmart to buy my equipment and all. Thank you WB for your inspiration and promotion of backpacking. A few years ago I had a broken ankle and was in Barnes and Noble looking for a good book on Bicycle riding (I had had an accident riding across US on recumbent). Well . . . .there were some books on thru hiking there and I bought one. Intrigued and excited! I immediately starting thinking about AT, then re-discovered the PCT. Then I finally figured out the CDT was within about a half day's drive. I decided to do all three, in opposite "order"! I quickly discovered Whiteblaze and its blessings. Thank you so very much!
