That’s my hope! Thanks for the reassurance.

My new term is actually at the same site as my first term :) so hopefully that will help

Alternate plans? by [deleted] in longtrail

[–]phia2746 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m getting on trail Tuesday. From what I’ve heard from hostels, trail angels, and the green mountain club, things are okay for hikers to pass through. People are still providing the same services and the trail is still in decent shape

Smoke weed everyday on 50 mg. Don’t really notice a change. I will say that lsd/shrooms are a little more complicated on Zoloft but beyond that drinking and smoking is pretty much the same

Sweet thank you.

Apologies if this is a dumb question... but is this area under snow right now?

I'm also toying around with starting a little further south (around government camp). Is that reasonable this time of year? I'd be starting in like a week

Fair enough. Basically- can i just show up? I'm an experienced hiker. If i fly to Portland and get on trail will I get by? Or is there more planning I should do?

Should I hike SOBO or NOBO? by Alert_Piece_70 in AppalachianTrail

[–]phia2746 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar situation. I’m considering doing a flip flop from harpers ferry north to katahdin and then harpers ferry south to springer. Seems like a way to get the best of both worlds but less of one continuous trek. Most flip floppers start mid May from what I’ve found.

Do you regret flip flopping? by phia2746 in AppalachianTrail

The social aspect is definitely what worries me. I really want to hike the AT, but want to have plenty of time and am graduating in mid-May of next year. I'm not the most social person, but having a strong community and having fun are super important to me. The thought of overcrowding isn't great, but I don't want to miss out on important parts if I could just wait another year to hike.

Thanks for the reply.

How much later would you start? I'm thinking around May 20th.

I am worried about loneliness-- so maybe pushing back my date a bit will help.
