Hey,

I can’t start in april, but I am planning to hike from Damacus as far as ny starting the first week of may. I am just in college and can’t start until around that time.

If you are able to start in may, I can join you.

Thanks,
Cara

Hi guys. I probably will see you both on the trail. I plan beginning in Harper’s ferry probably around April 1. I am sure our paths will cross at sometime.
I am also looking forward to meet up with a partner who is a compatable hiker.

At this time I have decided to pick up at the Southern entrance to the Smokey Mountains on April 1, 2016.

I’m planning on starting mid-April around Pearisburg, Va., so perhaps our paths will cross.:slight_smile:

I want to start near Front Royal, Va but can’t find transportation to there. Does anyone have an idea?

There is no inexpensive transportation to FR coming from the DC burbs side. If you can get to Charlottesville and either shuttle to or hitch to Waynesboro, you may be able to hitch through Shenandoah NP to get to Front Royal. I know, kinda messy to do, but if you have the time to get a hold of someone otherwise going to Front Royal, not many other options I can think of. Have you tried Whiteblaze.net also for this?

I live in the MD suburbs just outside DC and thru-hiked the AT in 1992. When are you looking to start? If you can get yourself to DC, I can get you to Front Royal.
