    Cselmer,
    I'd bet that you are the other Chris that Phil is picking up in Bangor on Monday.
    We'll be starting the same day.

    Trail Name: Guaranteed (maybe)
    Direction: Headed South
    Start Date: 7/3/12
    Approach Trail: Yep but undecided between Helon Taylor or Chimney Pond/Dudley Trail. Guess I'll figure it out when I'm standing at the fork in the trail.

    Hey Chris, A friend and I will be kicking off SOBO July 21 and will likely be trudging along somewhat slow through the 100 mile wilderness so you may catch us a little ways down the trail. Would be nice to have a third person to hike with. You are welcome to hike with us if you can bare with our slower pace to start with.

    -Patrick (trail name TBD)

    Start Date: July 21
    Approach Trail: No
    A Friend will be shooting for a finish on New Years so we will need to make up some mileage along the way. If anyone is going SOBO around the same time we would be happy to have a third or fourth to hike with.

    I'm filming a documentary on applying new age truths to your everyday, busy lives. A spiritual film combining a very physical, tangible adventure with the spiritual, invisible adventure of fundamental truths.

    Before this I have been sailing across the world on a yacht. One adventure at a time.

    Enjoy!

    Good luck to all who are starting, be safe! Have fun!

    Maybe I will go up Abol and come back via the Hunt, then again maybe I won't!

    I promised myself that I would take it easy all the way to Vermont before I start cranking up the daily mileage and really enjoy why I am out there to begin with; I believe the phrase most use is, HYOH. Good luck to all and I hope to see many of you on the trail. BTW; I received an unconfirmed report of almost, or just over, 400 SOBO's this year! AWESOME!!

    Spiral here. Flip flopping after 802 miles NOBO and plan on a SOBO thru to Springer. Just keep walking.

    The non-refundable plane ticket is booked so I guess its official. About time. Getting started on the PCT 3 years ago was so much easier then the drama I've been through this time around.

    Default 2012 Thru Hiking - SOBO

    - Possible -
    checking in.
    climbed Katahdin the day it opened this year - May 21
    hiking southbound with Chanticleer who is accompanying me as far as Harpers Ferry. At that point, he'll go off-trail to attend graduate school and I'll keep going to Springer.

    At present, we're in Duncannon, PA - staying at the Doyle tonight before moving on tomorrow morning. I spent today doing boot repair in a attempt to prep the boots to get to Harpers Ferry.

    We are on schedule to reach Harpers Ferry August 14. At that point, I'll take a few days off-trail to spend at home in Northern Virginia and get new boots! I can't wait to get back to Virginia and hike through the Blue Ridge Mountains.

    Cheers!
