Ever since I was a HS Senior in 1974, I have wanted to hike the entire Applachian Trail. Trouble is, I should have done it between HS and college, because I can see no way now to put my job, family, and life in general on hold for 4-5 months. Maybe when my kids are in college in 12 years; let's see, I will only be 64 then. Maybe my wife would like a 5-month break from me by then (LOL, at least a little bit).

Has anyone done the AT? How do/did you put your life on hold for that long? Any regrets? ]]> BlackEagle https://www.wilderness-survival.net/forums/entry.php?175-Appalachian-Trail
