Looking for a trail angle here. I need a ride to the airport in portland ME from Caratunk today. Flight leaves at 7pm. I will be checking this board constantly. Currently have no cell signal. ...

I had been carrying the ATC 2011 guide until mile 800. Then I switched to AWOL's 2011. Trail profile and additional water sources were worth the switch. I also tear out the pages that I am hiking...

That's what I do.

Thanks Iceaxe. I'm going to try to work something out with the hostel. I appreciate the help.

I look forward to meeting the people at the Hiker's Hostel. I have heard nothing but good things about them. As of right now I am leaning towards the Amtrak train (which arrives at 7am). I'm going...

Sorry man, but you are barking up the wrong tree about MY priorities. Their medical condition is my first and foremost concern, but after being ill for 16 years, they are the one who is pushing me...

Who knows 4shot? But leaving behind an SO who has a very unstable health condition is certainly a challenge. Here is to hoping that this year will be kind to us and there will be no...

Hey y'all! Today is looking better than yesterday. I am hoping to catch the overnight train to GA Tuesday night. That means I'll be in Gainesville GA Wednesday morning at 7am. Since I did not...

Gainesville GA to Amicalola Falls.

Okay Amtrak Crescent, Tuesday night! So I need a ride from Atlanta to Amicalola Falls Visitors Center Wednesday morning.

I have looked at both Amtrak and Greyhound and they seem to be options. I won't know if I can go till after we see the docs. :-( Now I just have to sit here and twiddle my thumbs.

I was supposed to leave for GA this morning and start hiking first thing tomorrow. Sadly my ride (who is also my SO) fell ill and really needs to be near home and the doctors. So I am at home, with...

I'm not crazy about some of the advice here on Whiteblaze, but only because you will find people from all points of view. Let's talk about the basics: feet, food/water, shelter. If you cover these...

Will be looking for you.

BTW: Unless you are in danger of hypothermia or death by some other calamity, keep your pyro hands off the books! I know at least 1 hiker that will take off heads for burning books.

I am also on the 13th! :-) Can't wait! Happy Margi Gras y'all!

See ya there!!!!

UPDATE: Departure date is now March 13th or 14th. :-)

Yippee! Going out today for a shakedown. See you all soon.

I will be carrying 1 soft cover at all times. Silence is okay. A world without books is just insane. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is my first. I will leave them in hiker boxes along...

I'm planning a shakedown trip the end of January- early February. Will most likely hit the Shenandoah National Park. Where are y'all going?

Hiking is 10% gear/knowledge preparedness, !0% good luck, and 100% mental.

Not quite true, but I can't hike in my riding boots. http://www.dubarry.us/product/7
