    Default SOBO 2012 - Want Company?

    Hello All,
    My husband and I are planning on starting a SOBO thru-hike some time in June 2012. We know that SOBO hikers are few and far between, and we would like to find other thru-hikers to start with or meet up with. We don't mind spending time alone on the trail, but the trail is L O N G and we would love company. I don't think we'll miss fighting for space in shelters, or having crowds of people around like the Northbounders do, but we would miss the chance to have a trail family. So, if you're going our way next year and you might like some company, let us know.

    2012South- I might be interested but I would not be thru-hiking. I want to do Khatadin and the 100 Mile Wilderness and then I might drop off. But I also live in FL so we might share in getting up there as I will be driving. If interested send me an email at [email protected]

    I'll be SOBO from Pearisburg, VA, starting around the last
    week in August 2012. Did the Northern 1500 miles in 1992.
    Plan to finish 20 years later! Possible hook-up ?

    Default Sobo 2012

    Hello,

    I am planning on a southbound thru-hike in June 2012 when I graduate from college. I don't mind solitude that much, but my family is very unhappy about the idea that I might be setting out by myself. It would be nice to have someone to plan to start with! Let me know if interested!

    Hey, I want to hike SOBO starting as soon as possible. I don't have a partner yet, but would love to hike with a group. I'm starting at Khatadin and hopefully going the whole way. Hope to see you guys on the trail! Keep in touch as the time gets closer.

    I'm interested in doing SOBO for a little while. I can start as early as mid-may from Maine (Because I live here). I'm not in very good shape (i.e. overweight) but I figure this hike would cure me of it. I'm a 31 year old, male nurse e-mail is [email protected] if anyone is interested please e-mail me. I'd love to have a trail family or a partner in crime. Would make it less intimidating.

    My wife and I were planning to hike NOBO Leaving the first week of may but I don't believe we're going to meet that deadline so with each passing day it's looking like we will be headed SOBO sometime in June.

    Feel free to e-mail me at [email protected] or follow me on twitter @tmckay9.
