Congratulations. And respect. Recovery and rehab is hard work!

This. A hundred times, this!!

This is very true for me as well -- going up steep pitches will make me anxious, but navigating DOWN is the most nerve-wracking. Lichen and moss, ice...

Let’s not forget the northbound ascent out of Pinkham Notch. Best not to look behind you if you are height-challenged. And then there’s a large...

Nutella and peanut butter are great together in summer months.

If you have a shuttle, I'd definitely consider a section of the AZT. Go to the ATA website for info on access and water. Easy access from Phoenix is...

Something similar to Craggy Gardens and other CCC pole shelters was my comment.

The steel bars in the rocks up cliffs in Maine and the Mahoosucs always add some interest.

Thank you for details and suggestions, Traveler.

I used part of the AT/old AT to loop back to Hot Springs from Hot Springs, and from there hitched to Asheville, but that's a day hike sort of thing. ...

I suggest trying the Precipice Trail in Acadia NP. If you can do that hike, you can do anything on the AT.

I second the Stratton Mtn hike, specifically Stratton-Arlington Rd to Highway 11/30. It feels pretty remote and the trail is pretty easy. The kids...

There are a few areas along the AT that I have traveled which elevated the "Spidey sense of danger" when moving across, through, or over rock ledges...

The climb up South Kinsman in NH is fairly exposed (a steep scramble over open boulders, cliffs). And of course Katahdin.

There is not much you can do about the dew point, thats Physics describing a nature's law. You can provide some measures to work arund condensation,...

StillMoving - perfect thing to do. Wish you all the best! There are too many topics just the same, in hiking and bike travelling, so I dont see...
