March Departure

#1

Trail Journals has a few start dates posted. Some folks write in their journals when they hope to leave.

I would love to meet as many people as I can who are going to be starting around mid-march. It looks like a pretty popular start time the clock is ticking. Y’all will be my family for the next handful of months, so I am just sending out my first greeting.

Chances are it will be you folks that come up with my trail name.

James,
I plan on doing the approach trail around March 10 and walk home to NH actually a little past home as I plan on hiking to Maine. See you out there.

I have also been curious to find out who on this forum would be starting around the same time I was (Mar 5-15). Of course my start is very dependent on how soon the Army gets me my orders. Good luck to everyone, the wait will be over soon.

My wife and I will be starting the Approach trail on the 1st of March. Will arrive in Georgia on the 28th of Feb via Amtrak and are staying at the Hiker Hostel. She is going to hike Georga with me then go back home to Maine. Can’t wait to get out there.

To Approach or not to Approach? Haven’t quite decided yet, but I’ll be sleeping on Springer the night of March 13th, one way or the other, headin’ toward Maine on the 14th.

Break-a-leg and others:

I hope to start march 5 on the approach trail, but if my finances aren’t yet 100% straight I might work another week or two and leave the 12th or 19th. Anyway …

There should be an open seat for the car ride from PA to GA.

If anyone needs a ride and is thinking about starting around the same time, email me.
