1) What do people do with their pets when they are LD hiking? Do most just depend upon friends and family to take care of pets?
2) Anyone hike with a parrot? I'm going to try a short hike on Pinchoti (Alabama) with my cockatoo.
Don't worry, I really don't think it is possible on the AT on a LD hike. Reality says it isn't possible because of 1) food supply, 2) the cold, 3) the rain, 4) the occasional roving hungry hawk. But it sure would be fun since she is fully flighted and follows me when we hike at home.
