I am a hippie Grandma who will be hiking this coming March, 2017. I plan to hike solo. But would love to have someone or more than one who would like to travel solo as well but like to meet up at night or check on each other along the trail or hike a few days together.
I am going to start out hiking a section. I have a little over two weeks for this endeavor and I would like to hike from Springer Mountain to Franklin, Nc or Fontana Dam. Or maybe start at Harpers Ferry going south. I plan on this first section being about 125 to 150 miles.....Or maybe hike the Shenandoah Mountain Park. I cannot do a thru hike because of the time involved. I will definitely plan another section hike after this. Does anyone have any ideas on where to start for a section hike?
If I say I will do this....I will! I have started training at the gym....walking....stair stepping, weights, etc. I will be slow at first.....but if Grandma Gatewood can do this with Keds Tennis Shoes so can I.
