Day 18 (Mile 344.6) Throughout the night, you could hear the winds whistling through the shelter as well as the surrounding woods. Thankfully the rain had not begun when I woke up at 6am. Knowing I had some open cut ridge walks in my day, I figured I would take advantage of the rain free…

Day 16 (Mile 294.8) After waking up at the Hotsprings Resort and Spa AT campsite section, I packed up and started to walk towards the laundry mat section of the camp. I had charged my power bank and phone close to 100% the night before. But I figured I would just give them a bit…

Day 15 (mile 275) Last night, I camped a quarter mile from Max Peak where the views were phenomenal. I was originally planning on catching a sunset and sunrise on the mountain. Howver after I posted my previous blog, I streched a bit and then passed out until after sunrise. So a total miscue on…

Day 13 (Mile 234.2) After making it to camp after resupplying I met a day hiker from Boston who gave me some of his beer and we got to talking. He told me that he came from Charlies Bunion and said it was well worth the detour. By the time I woke up I realized…

Day 7 (mile 125.4) After arriving at the hostel the night before they asked me if I would like to be dropped off where I was picked up or at Winding Stair Gap (10 miles ahead). They kindly mentioned that because where I was picked up was out of the way, to be dropped back…

Day 5 (mile 81.2): Before I fell asleep, I did my normal pre sleep ritual where I hang my bag on the pegs in the shelter. The reason you do that is to avoid the mice from crawling near your face while they are sniffing the bags for any food. However another hiker had a…

Day 0: Like all great adventures, this trip started with lack of sleep and pushing through some pre trail anxiety. Anxiety about every little thing that can and might go wrong. After a bit I silenced the what ifs, and by the bright time of 3am, I was off to Logan with Logan being my…

So here we are, after years of saying, maybe next year. I am finally within a month of my start date of my attempt of the Appalachian Trail. As I sit here at home reflecting on what is ahead of me in the next 5 months, it’s hard to not get caught up in the…

As the Appalachian Trail gets closer, it feels appropriate to finally update where I’m at. Both mentally and logistically, as well as what I’ll be bringing on the trail. Part of my motivation in these blogs is to provide people a free and ad free blog that showcases what Im doing. Just in case someone…
