I'm looking for a partner to thru hike. April could work for me.

I'll be out there in April too. I've only done about 40 miles in SNP on the trail but in those three days I sidestepped my first rattlesnake, scared away a couple of bears, and came home with lyme disease. Nothing left to do but walk 2,000 miles.

Let me know if anybody is interested in slackpacking. Particularly, I want to do some sections but not others, skipping the flat/boring/whatever sections of the trail.
