    Default SOBO first half of June (TBD)

    All,
    Optimistic for a 1 June 09 step off, but may slide to the right a bit based on wx/high water (or the plague).

    Been planning this for a year btwn SOBO and NOBO, but SOBO won out based on my schedule. I'm actually glad it worked out that way.

    Look forward to seeing all of you out there leaning forward.

    Cheers,

    Lemhi

    Was planning on doing another hike next year, I hiked last year, and the other day at work got thinking about logistics, after adding everything up, I could easily do a sobo hike leaving in early July.

    Soooo, thinking hard about going, but probably won't start at Katahdin, most likely Abol Bridge cause I won't be thru-hiking, probably doing around 1500 miles to Pearisburg.

    Starting to get excited again.
