I am attempting my first thru-hike this spring and have gotten some really interesting responses when I tell people of my plans. What are some ridiculous questions/suggestions you have heard.
Examples:
"So there is a trail that goes from Georgia to Maine?... Is it paved?"
" What about all of the Tarantulas?"
" You should bring a shotgun!"
" I couldn't imagine being out in the woods for three months hunting for my own food and stuff."
"Better watch out for those Grizzly bears?"
