I have searched for a clear answer to this question, and have had no luck - If I have missed a post, please point me in the right direction -
What do most adults do for health insurance while hiking a long distance trail for six months? I am closing in on 50 years old and plan on a through hike on the AT. I will have my health insurance covered. My wife is also interested in a through of the PCT in a few years - her only fear is how to afford health insurance while hiking. I have searched for some policies, but most I have found is for "extreme travelers" - primarily for lost luggage and cancelled flights. We just need a decent policy for health related items that could pop up while on trail. She is not retiring - just taking six months off.
How much can I expect to spend on a major medical policy while through hiking?
