Hey, welcome to WhiteBlaze salves , sleeperwalker1291 , Hambone08 , and Saentis18 (hope your second attempt works out better).
Hey fellow hikers. I'm planning to leave Katahdin during the beginning of July. Going as lightweight and cheap as possible. Hope to see some of you along the way!
Just remember that you will be carrying more food at the 100-mile wilderness than anytime the next 450 miles... and don't count on the P.O. being open at Mt. Washington either!
Hey, maybe we can meet up sometime before the huts and do a "work stay!"
Happy Hiking anyways...

Hi everyone!
No trail name yet
SOBO!!!!!
Leaving June 22
I'm hiking up Katahdin with my mom on the 23rd, then I'm off solo. If anyone's leaving around that time let me know!

Didn't catch your stating you were leaving beginning of July! Oh, well... hope to see and hear from each of you on yer journey SOBO along the A.T.... maybe, if I stop long enough to take some pics; you might catch up to me!
Also, cuz I have gone SOBO before, I will try to leave you some great "secret shelters" that I will use along the way!
Be careful and remember, one step in front of the other.

I have official dates!
My plane gets in the 26th, and I will be summiting Katahdin on the 27th. Sleep the night at Katahdin stream, and then off for the adventure of my life.
A friend of mine pasted away this past thursday. in the past we talked about my hike and he said if he beat it (cancer), he would like to do a section with me on my SOBO. as thinks got worse he told his sister and i how many things he wished he had done. told me to go for it no mater what while i can. 3 hours before his viewing i got offered a g$$d job. i turned them down. somethings are more important and very few understand.
ill think of Danny on my hike.
well looks like im changing my plans not staying in baxter on the 1st looks like ill be up and out in one day to hurd brook

Just thought I would let everyone know that I finished my hike on June 23. Best experience of my life. Looking forward to trying the PCT in 2010.
