I am starting to consider hiking from Northampton, where my daughter goes to school, back to my house in Guilford (located right on the trail). Although a fall hike would be lovely, my guess is I'd be able to pull it off next year in the late spring or early summer. It seems like it would be an awesome adventure but the planning aspect feels a bit daunting. I know the camping/overnight issues will present challenges, and am just wondering whether anyone has already developed any knowledge base on this on which I could potentially draw. Or, if there is anyone else out there who is thinking about a similar adventure, perhaps we can share information?
