In case anyone was interested I am currently in progress of my 2011 thru-hike! =) Right now I am in Damascus library updating some stuff and thought I would make a quick post to let everyone know how its going. Absolutely LOVING it so far. Highlights include: Roan Highlands, Bob Peoples and the Kincora Hostel in general, also Standing Bear Hostel was fantastic and just all the amazing people on the trail so far.
Started March 3rd and am averaging just under 15mpd. Weather has been amazing for the most part. Got super lucky coming through the Smokys as it was 65ish and sunny almost every day. Recently has been a bit more hectic. Several days of snow as well as a random 85 degree day yesterday. However when I woke up this morning in Abingdon Shelter it was snowing! Talk about a crazy temperature swing.
Also I have been dubbed "Ghost" on the trail. If anyone is further interested in my progress check out my trail journal at www.trailjournals.com/tbedick I keep it real up to date via my iPhone.
Later, for now!
