    Planning on spending this Sat night (19th) at the Ami Falls shelter and then heading out first thing the next morning. Anyone else doing the same? Would love to compare plans/gear/weight/resupplies before I hit it.
    General info for me. 25lb pack, 15 resupply points, 15-20 miles a day, some 30 milers planned. Im Eric

    And some were concerned they were hiking alone.

    Have a great 2011 thru hike. The jealous, green and envious (me) will be reading journals and follow as many as I can.

    Make sure you watch out for any hot spots on the feet . . . take lots of breaks and let your feet air out before blisters appear . . .

    Good Luck and Have Fun!! Updates?

    Hey Mt Squid!
    Thanks for your work on this. I didn't get to leave on the 16th. Don't ask, it's in the past now.
    The good news is that I'll be arriving at AFSP on the 25th & leaving Springer on the 26th.
    Thanks for the updates!
