First all I want to say hello to everyone and thanks for being cool.
That said, I live in Harrisburg, PA and plan on doing the AT from the Susquehanna river on south to Georgia and then north to Maine next summer. My question is this what would be approx. the latest I could head out from Harrisburg and make it to Georgia without encountering bad weather (below 30 degrees regularly) or any other problems.
Take into account I am 21, 5'11" 160lbs and will be somewhat in shape. Also I will be traveling with a base weight of ~17lbs and solo.
The reason I would like to know about the latest start date is I can't really start working until school is done (middle of may) and as it stands I'm kind of poor. Fortunetly I don't have to worry about fall classes.
Thanks again ^_^
