Hi,
I am traveling to Boston from India, am moderately fit and looking for a 6 days (Mon June 10 - June 15) hike on the AT.
I was hoping to start from Mt. Katahdin, but am unsure if I can cross the 100 mile wilderness in the short time I have. Hence I am now considering section hiking on the Maine or Connecticut stretches. Any suggestions on which section is a better idea to hike?
I am a long distance runner and am guessing should be able to hike 10-12miles a day.
Main considerations - scenic, possible to take public transport to a trailhead as I will not be driving. If I can get company on the hike, even better!
Thanks!
Ajay
