Hi, I'm Bailey from CT
I plan on thru-hiking in 2015 but im having trouble finding someone who will do the hike with me since it means taking off at least one semester of school.
Ive already told my mother that people meet up and travel together and that its hard to travel without encountering anyone, but it would put her at ease if i were to at least begin the hike knowing someone.
So i guess my question is, is she right? Is it better to at least begin the hike knowing someone?
if so, is anyone game to start with me?
