One of boy's wife just finished the trail yesterday from Maine to Georgia. Took her 6 months, she got caught up in the blizzard, so she got slowed down a bit.  [bow_down] 2,200 miles.  [drink]

That's a seriously awesome achievement.  My first hiking goal is to become a 46er (Adirondack high peaks).  I only have 43 more to go...


:D

What he just said! That's awesome. Good for her indeed. [thumbsup] [bow_down]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

That is a daunting accomplishment    [clap] [clap]....especially when you get down to the Tennessee areas in the deep Smokies....it becomes near mountain climbing

I lived close to the Trail Head in North Georgia and did some day hiking there a few years back....holy crap

that ain't no waltz down a nature trail

Bill Bryson wrote a pretty entertaining book on his attempt at the trail.

Congratulations - that's a fantastic achievement.

I've always thought that had to be one of the oddest book pitches ever - Bryson going to his publisher, pitching a book about how he DIDN'T hike the AT. Funny book nonetheless.

Congrats to the boy's wife!   [bow_down]

I have nooooooo desire. 

A friend of mine did it years ago - took about the same amount of time.  Upon completion, he promptly got the "AT" tatt.  Not being one to get inked, I would likely change that if I did the trail.

What's her next adventure?

My buddy and some of his friends were hiking on the AT in Georgia a number of years ago.  They were puttering around setting up camp in some remote area when a rustic individual stepped out of the brush and said, "Ma says you all are to come to dinner now"  They went and it was creepy.
This isn't a dress rehearsal for life - this is it!
