I am soooo happy right now it just came through.:banana
Okay it is not for the AT I only wish and dream one day
I will be able to do either sections or a complete thru-hike
planning on 2008 (ssshh do not tell my husband that)

Right now I am happy to be on my way to the JMT

I know this is a web site for the AT but I love it here
and feel comfortable posting.
Plus everyone is so great and helpful.

I have gained so much insight and hints from my time spent here on the WhiteBlaze.net
Mahalo nui loa to everyone!

I am so happy but sad that it will not be a thru-hike...my hubby
choose to come with me and only time off is late Sept/Oct so I fear it will be rain and snow. We will see just how far we get.
I am in a panic so much to plan in such a short time.
Plus no resupply places will be open...ughh....:eek:
Heavy packs....I am in both a state of shock to find this out and a state of YES we are going. I love the islands but to be in the High Sierra's :p

Okay I am calming down now...breathe...such breathe...:banana

Thank you for your wilderness reservation request. We and have received and
processed one of your choices.
You will receive a written confirmation in the mail within two weeks. Your confirmation will specify entry trailhead and dates granted.

WHAT oh man I have to wait TWO weeks to find out if they approved of the JMT choice....uggh!

That's okay ...I will be so busy planning and packing.
Either way we are going!

Be careful! Snow is a definite possibility.

Happy planning & happy hiking. I'll be done with the JMT before you start (August hike planned), so you can PM me in early Sept if you want to chat with someone who just hiked the trail.

Thanks and I will for sure.
August should be perfect...hey Clark Fork (Doug) is going in August.
Hope you have a safe and happy hike as well.
I know the bears are really active in autumn preparing for the winter:o

Thank you Skid...I can't believe how excited I am.
So unexpected that I am going now instead of next year solo.

I only hope I can handle hiking with DSH ;)
I must remember it will be more of a camping experience with him
and take it slow and just enjoy it.:p

Now where is my credit card...snow...rain...new gear!!!
oh yeah...new gear!!!!!!
