Anyone out there ever meet Bill Gibson, 80, who according to him, thru hiked twice NOBO and once SOBO after his retirement in 1990? He was living in CA at the time but lives in the Roanoke Area now.
We met him on Andy Layne this afternoon and are quite fascinated, by this healthy, happy, soft-spoken fellow.
I believe he said his last thru hike was 92 I think. He said he started SOBO for a 4th trip and hit very stormy wet weather and quit. He hikes all around SW VA now.
