Just wondering if anyone out there who has thru-hiked could give me some insight on how they saved up the necessary funds to get out on the trail? Looking to try and hike one of the big 3 in the next few years and I think this is my only reservation I have.
I see a lot of college kids out there getting on the trail right after graduation, I wonder how some of them get the money or if they even have the money to attempt. So whether it was being frugal, investing, landing a decent job, or just your method of saving it would definitely be helpful if I could have a few tactics in mind to chip away at this thing.
