For those wondering (not that anyone in particular would,) I'm still alive and I still love hiking. I haven't forgotten everyone who has helped me get to the point I'm at now. I've talked to the VA docs and they basically glossed over my knee problems. I still don't know if it is something that would sort itself out over time or not but going 3 miles a day isn't a whole lot of fun.

Good to hear from ya Vet, hiatus from the Internet word is often nessesary for ones sanity. Knees are a tricky thing when it comes to healing, just gonna take some time.

Saltysack is right---3 mile days are perfect. Just head out with a pack, go in 3 miles and set up camp. Day 2 head another 3 miles someplace else. Day 3 return to Camp 1. Day 4 return to the car. 4 days 12 miles. Perfect.

Hopefully not with a 80lb pack though
