    Default Solo female thru hiker journals

    I'll be hiking from GA to PA starting in April 2016. I have some backpacking experience, but this will be my first time venturing out on my own. Wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of other women who have gone solo.

    to White Blaze!

    There are many solo female hikers out there these days... A few of my favorite solo writers are:

    Wired - http://www.walkingwithwired.com/p/at-2014.html (Wired has completed the PCT, CDT, AT, & other trails)
    Rockin' - http://ladyonarock.com/trips/ (She has done lots of backpacking - most of it out west)

    BonBon hiked the AT last year and can be found on Trail Journals - http://www.trailjournals.com/entry.cfm?id=480238
    Red Panda hiked the AT last year and can be found on Trail Journals - http://www.trailjournals.com/entry.cfm?trailname=18576

    These should keep you busy for a little while. I am sure others will chime in with more awesome accounts of the AT. Enjoy!

    Red Panda's journal is a hoot. Really fun to read. That poor girl and her addiction to peanut M&M's
