How many of you guys have started out on hikes (section or thru) alone? I am thinking about doing a few sections this summer, but I am not sure if I will be able to find any hiking partners for them.
What is the experience like? I know there are a lot of people out there hiking during the summer months on the AT, so I assume that I would most likely not be hiking alone the entire time (this adds some comfort to potential bad situation of needing help when I am out there).
