#1

Hey im a college freshman over at Rice U in Texas. I’m planning a CT trek for the summer of 2010, but unfortunately no one I know appreciates long weeks in the outdoors let alone hiking hundreds of miles. I’ll go at it solo if that’s what ends up workin out, but if anyone else wants to coordinate send me an email. I’m open to any starting date between early June through early August.

I’m planning a thru-hike this summer. I wanted to leave in late June. I’m 19 and in good shape. Unfortunately i don’t know anyone who appreciates hundreds of miles or is in good enough shape. Mail me if your interested.

Andrew, I’m in Houston, planning to start the trail (thru hike) June 20th or 21st; going to Denver by bus a week ahead to acclimatize and prep. I’m a lot older than you, but if you want to coordinate, email me: tbrucia@gmail.com. Coffee at Starbucks in ‘The Village’ on me if you’d like to meet…

Hi all,
Looks like I’ll be hitting the trail around the 2nd week of June. My dates are somewhat flexible. I’d also rather not hike solo, so let’s coordinate as the time approaches.

Hello! I am also planning on hiking the trail this summer, though not a thru hike (have to work). I’m starting a bit earlier than most who’ve posted on here already. I’m starting on May 22nd in Denver. I plan on hiking about 2 sections per weekend except section 6, which will probably take the whole weekend. I’ll be hammock camping and using MREs to lessen my campsite footprint. Let me know if you’re interested. I live in Westminster, CO.

I’m looking to start my thru-hike between July 20 and Aug 10. The primary consideration is finding hiking partners for almost all sections. If anyone is interestedd, do email me…

I’m 27, from (central) NJ, in decent shape and plan to train for this for the next 2 months. Never done a thru-hike before… only backpacking trips of up to 10 - 12 days. Hoping to average about 100 miles / week – in no hurry. Going for the scenery and the wilderness.
