Hi there. I'm James Hodgson, an outdoor humorist. I write for a couple of outlets, in this case for Tripleblaze hiking and backpacking blog, based in Decatur, GA. I live in Atlanta.
I'd like to connect with some thrus heading out from Springer this spring, especially any who intend to use the Hiker Hostel's excellent shuttle service from Atlanta. I reached out to the Hiker Hostel as well as to the people who run this forum, so they know I'm posting about this.
I'd love it if I could join up with some folks heading to the AT, then spend the first night or two with them on the trail. As you go along, we'd love to hear from you as well, and we'd be happy to post links to your blog or twitter account if you are using those.
Let me know if you're interested, or know someone who is. You can post any questions right here, I'll be watching the thread. Thanks!
