    Default Hiking Partner Needed

    I am looking to start hiking from Springer Mt. Georgia and continue as far as I can in 10-14 days. I am not trying to set any speed records, just want to enjoy the experience. I would like to have a partner to help split the gear as I am not trying to pack ultra light, like to sleep in a tent. This will be my first hike on the AT, but I am very fit.

    What are you thinking of sharing? Some of it you can't safely share unless you stay within shouting distance of your p.

    I'm thinking:
    stove&pot
    water purifier
    tent for 2
    first aid kit
    a few luxuries like phone, reading material, camp chair

    I know you didn't ask, but a winter hike with someone you have never hiked with before, is not a hike to share gear on.
