Nov 19, 2008 - I wish you the best of luck on your thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. Sounds like you just got your idea off the ground. Do plenty of research. I fell in love with the AT when readinig the book A Walk for Sunshine by Jeff Alt. I met him once in Shenandoah National Park. He signed my copy of his book. He wrote, "Go after your dream." words to live by. If you need help with any research let me know. also, when you learn what a "trail Angel" is keep me in mind. I'll be on the trail next summer.

YOu need to really plan, especially if your going yourself. aaahhh fuck it go do it..make sure you bring water tablets at least and lots of water, map and cell. Sounds sort of last min..bro..go walk 20 miles now and then think about it again..

Nov 19, 2008 - Well this isn't like I haven't hiked before. I've done Philmont (75 miles in 2 weeks) three times. I do need to train a lot. I won't be able to do the entire trail as I had planned, though I would love to, I think it's now going to be just one month of hiking which isn't that bad. Thanks for the advice!

Nov 19, 2008 - I'll see if I can get my hands on a copy of that book. Sadly, do to complications, I'll only be able to do about one month of hiking but I'm still excited. Thanks for the advice and maybe we will pass each other on the trail.

Nov 19, 2008 - And thats great dude..just giving you a heads up..mentally be strong..be very strong..+ smart..and you will become 1 with nature. But don't expect any answer out of the trail. But it will cleanse your soul if thats what you need..by why..you can go running..seriously try to run a half marathon 13 miles...or train for it..it will come n handy if you do hike..and it will make you stress free + you'll be in shape + get a runner high..ahhhhhhh
