i am 16 years old and am veery near earning eagle scout. Next summer, 2006 i and my friend (who is also 16), have decided to hike as much of the At northbound as we can in roughly 70 days. currently we have about 500 hiking miles undr our belt. and have done 180 miles in a straight hike at most. we are capable of 25+ miles a day with our old packs (50 lb) but now have our base weight under 10 lbs and are just getting into the cult of ultralight trekking. we calculated a rough 20-25 lb total load for 5 days and maybe less because of our rapid pace. TO ALL THRU-HIKERS do you think it will be possible to hike the Entire AT in our time constraints
