62 yo NOBO seeking hiking partner(s) March 12

[Rick d]

Hi All: I know that it's a bit late in the game, but I'm looking for others who will be starting their AT journey around March 12th who are also looking for a partner or 2 to begin the hike. My hiking skills are rusty and the technology has changed since I last hiked so anyone of any age at any skill level would be welcome especially during the first 2 or 3 weeks. Give me a shout. Thank you. Rick

P.S. I'm a Reiki Master if that helps at all.

Show up at the trail head and you'll find a partner easy enough. A prearranged hiking partners doesn't usually work out anyway. :0)

28 hikers leaving according to 2014 Thru-hike registry just on Whiteblaze between 3/8 and 3/14. There will be plenty of others as well that never bothered to register. You will find lots of fellow hikers at your pace.

Yep, just show up. By the time you get to Neels Gap, you'll have a good idea who you'll be hiking with a lot.

P.S. I'm a Reiki Master if that helps at all.

I'll bring along my magic wand, pet leprechaun, and a good supply of snake oil.
