Greetings All,
Well lets see if I can remember what I wrote a few minutes ago. Apparantly I took too long to post and the system logged me out and dumped my message!! I hate it when that happens!! (as long as the trail doesn't log me out when I take too long!!)
How feasible is it to proceed more or less without an official 'itinerary' of any sort?? I'd like to go with only a couple weeks 'schedule' ahead, essentially deciding where to re-supply and when to call in maildrops from base as I progress. I'd prefer to handle re-supply personally, keeping maildrops in a last resort category. I'm just a do-it-myself kind of guy. I'm not a fan of hitching either, never been there actually, but it appears practically required here. I suppose I'll have to adjust my priorities I guess
About hostels and the like,,,, With an early April start would they be full up quickly and likely unavailable to those flying by the seat of their pants, and coming in late in the day?? I'll primarily be sheltering, tenting, etc. unless there is a need such as re-supply or connection to a bouncebox that dictates an overnight in alternative lodgings.
Thanks,
TJ Baker
