Anyone going SOBO in early July?

[mikeosborne]

I'm going to begin my SOBO hike probably within the first two weeks of July and I am doing this solo so I wanted to see if anyone would also be starting around that time that would make a good hiking partner!?

Hey I'm thinking about going early June for two months. I live in New York and am hoping to start in Maine.

My buddy and myself are going to be starting July 4th.

[mikeosborne]

My start date will probably be between the 4th and the 7th so maybe I'll see some of you out there!

I am planning a SOBO attempt starting 7 July and then on with the trail on the 8th. My wife will be driving me up on 6 July. I am in search of someone who has a site reserved (I swing in the trees) that would'nt mind sharing.

Partnering up for the 100 mile wouldn't be a bad idea to say the least!

This thread is from 2012. I'm planning to start the first week of July this year

[twopics]

I plan on starting sobo July 15th. I was going to say start hiking Katadin, then change it to climb see you out there

[AngryGerman]

My SOBO start date, as indicated in an earlier post, may be delayed for a couple of weeks to which I would then be departing mid to late July.

I fear I may have caused a stress fracture in one of the Ol' Dogs due to a training injury so I must rest the foot and do more biking for cardio!

I really... hope this gets better before my departure, either way I am still going to attempt a SOBO!

Will be doing the same here. Hopefully the unrelenting rain we have had in June will subside...

My girlfriend and I have a reservation at Katahdin stream July 5th to the 7th then heading South. I am about to book flights to Boston then a bus to Bangor then pay $175 for a shuttle to Baxter... I wish there was an easier way

Is there an easier way!?!?!

[fredthoreau]

I plan on starting either July 1 or July 4 for a solo SOBO, no camp reservation yet for Baxter.

Rent a subcompact car for $100 a day and drive from Chicago to Bangor. Even with gas it's probably cheaper than flying for two people. Then take the local bus to Millinocket?
