    Default 2012 e2e

    I know it's a little early in the year but I'm sure some plans are forming.
    Who all is planning an E2E in 2012? I know of 3-4 myself included, so who all is going to be out there this year? Should we start a list/roll call?

    My daughter and I are trying to see if we can get enough time off (3 to 4 weeks, yeah we're slow) in mid-August to mid-September to E2E. If not we'll probably hike the northern part SOBO down to Maine Junction as we've both hiked the southern part already.

    I was planning a Y2K about 12 years ago.
    Simple is good.

    Perfect start date for a SOBO, should be a great hike! I want to do an End-to-End starting at the beginning of September myself, doesn't look like I will be able to do it this year, but I'll still be out on the trail alot

    I'm likely to be doing the LT northbound - probably leaving mid to late July.

    I end to ended the LT Nobo - it's the best way -- I do understand 10K and other's SOBO though - thru hikers that have recently hiked the AT sec of the trail and want to insure that they complete the terrain north of Rutland / Killington ..... the trail does set up better S-N though - hiking gets harder, more dramatic, scenic, and impressive (above tree line) the further north you get - recommended!

    My son and I will be out for a week or so -- probably App Gap to Laraway, more or less -- on his quest to do the whole thing, but no continuous thru for us. Good luck to all who do.

    Hey Arron; I went SOBO about 4 years ago and started around the same time as you are planning. I was about 1 week ahead of the foliage change. And that particular time of year there are often groups from private schools or colleges doing orientation. What a beautiful walk it will be.

    I wanted to start a bit later but some other stuff won't allow it.
