When I finished the AT in 2010 I decided to hike one "longish" trail a year. In 2011 I thrued the BMT. Now my 2012 Long Trail E2E hike is in a few weeks and I'm starting to get that feeling that you get when you have a nice long hike almost within reach....
Starting to lay my gear out, think about what I'm going to do different, etc.
I think I like getting ready to go on a multi-week hiking trip as much as I do actually hiking it.
