I would like to eventually do a thru hike of the AT however, at the moment I can't and would like to do some sections in the mean time. To kind of get an idea of what I would be getting myself into and to go out and hike more! Once I retire I plan on taking the time between the military and whatever I do next to try a thru hike. Maybe even complete a section hike of the AT until then.
Preferably sections that are very scenic or have a good number of side trails to choose from. I'm sure some areas have more breathtaking views than others. Or have some interesting things to do near the trail that I wouldn't necessarily want to spend a day doing during a thru hike. Up to 3 day section, maybe 5 day section a little down the road. The closer to Maryland and New York the better for now as my dad lives in NY and I'm stationed in MD.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Ken
