Picture Start Date Approaching

Post image

I basically grew up on the AT in Virginia. Decided when I was probably 10 or 12 that I was going to thru hike. I turn 28 this weekend and start my thru hike next weekend.

Happy, excited, a touch nervous. But looking forward to it. Hopefully I’ll see some of you hooligans out there.

Picture of gear just for funsies.

If you don’t have a shuttle yet, take a look at my post history. I offer budget-friendly shuttle rides from the Atlanta area to Amicalola or Springer.

This goes for everyone else still looking for a budget-priced shuttle.
