Hi. Currently am in the very beginning stage of thinking about an Ozark Trail through hike (see resources at http://www.ozarktrail.com/thruhiking.php#q1). I was wondering if there are any here who have completed such a hike.
To me, it seems as though this would be a good intro/training hike in prep for my A.T. through hike, anticipated in 2020 or so (oh, "use or lose" leave...!) Biggest questions/concerns I have are in regards to water availability and lack of proximity to resources/towns compared to the A.T. Some of these issues are lightly addressed in the link above and by other links off their main page, but I think it would be great to open deeper discussion on the topic of O.T. through hikes to further elaboration.
Speaking of which...why is there no section for the Ozark Trail in this "Listing of Other Long Trails"?
