[The Impersonator]

In 2007, I made a failed attempt. By the time I'd reached Neel's Gap, I'd nearly gone hypothermic twice due to poor choices in tent and sleeping bag, and didn't have the dough to buy the proper gear right off the bat.

This time, I'm going to save a lot more dough. And armed with the greatest experience in the world, that of failure, (not to mention some proper sleeping gear) I will be making my second thru-hike attempt, leaving MA on the saturday April 11'th, starting out on my lucky number, 13.

Good hiking, everybody, and hope to see you in the Mountains of our world.
