Well guys I am starting to heal up pretty well. The blisters are starting to feel a little better, and the swelling in my ankle is starting to go down but it is still a little bit to sore to walk on. For those of you who read my previous post would know that I had to come out of the 100 mile wilderness hiking southbound because of the ankle injury and the blisters. I am gonna get back out there, and I believe I am going to do the flip flop from Harpers Ferry, Hike north, then get a bus ticket go back to HF and Hike to Georgia. Will I be starting at a good time to do a thru hike this way? Will there be some hikers in that area to hike with or will I be all by myself? If not, is there anyone here who is interested in maybe going north from WV? I hope that my plan is going to work. Can anyone give me some good input? I have also paired down pack weight and have been taking it easy on the feet. It looks like it will probably be this week and the next before I can think about getting to Harpers Ferry to start.
