yeah, how you guys getting there?
From the center of Texas, I'm taking the bus for 2+ days... It goes all the way to Medway while anything else (train or plane) needs a bus from Bangor or Portland to medway anyway. I'm not sure what the going price is... it was $91 when I first checked it out, but I paid $112 by the time I booked.
july 23
bus to bangor from midwest and have been offered a ride to baxter from a a fellow WBer:sun

well another new kid on the block, but still sorting out all the details, and hopefully starting out during the middle of july!
as for the details, im working on the cash and planning, but more importantly, gear... traveling through costa rica this past winter i had all my stuff stolen...including some well loved and severely missed items. i'd love suggestions for pack size, stove type, and where i can find the best decent priced, GOOD, raingear...preferably gortex...
Start date 18 July, less than two months off... I'll be in the country 3 days then on the trail, no muckin around!

Goretex, are you sure?? there are lighter, more packable alternatives...
