I am hiking from the approach trail to the North Carolina border with a few friends the last week of March. This will be my first AT trip and I am super excited and have been training hard.
I have the ability to take my son and his friend with me but, being that I don't fully know what to expect myself, I'm not sure that they could handle it and am looking for input from people with a little experience on the subject.
Both of these young men are 13/14 years old and have been in Scouts for many years. Both are strong hikers but, kinda lazy teens the majority of the time. They will be on spring break and I was thinking about instead of letting them sit around playing Xbox for two weeks, I'd give them a potentially live changing experience.
Your input will be greatly appreciated.
