For anyone who feels inclined to check out this page .
It is trails of recovery program and aimed at sending at least one individual in recovery A season on some type of thru hike.
Since lots of people cannot commit to being gone as long as six months they are focusing on more shorter thru hikes in the 300/500 mile range.
It is worth checking out if inclined .

I like the concept. With all the solitude, hard work and trail towns, it would be difficult to avoid relapse.
Could have some success if implemented well

It seems like a natural recovery process. The biggest concern would be withdrawals on the trail and in the wilderness. The trail towns would not compete with the solitude and lure of the trail in my case. Thank you.
