Hiked 22.8 miles on the BMT, it was a rough trip. Will post a report later.
Lost in the right direction.

Yes, quite memorable. You are very tenacious. Not sure if I would be able to do the same. Great to hear about the interactions with the hunters. Many times they get a bad rap. I think that most are like the ones you encountered and there are just a few bad apples.Grinder wrote:

I can relate to the mud sucking the shoe off your foot.
I had a run in with mud twice. Once in Vermont and the other in NY's Catskill Mnts.

There is a fine line between tenacious and stupid and I get a little too close to stupid sometimes.

I'm sure you have learn' how tough it is to put fires out in the desert
Damn, I need to sit down and figure out what I learned on my last trip then. Should've been a LOT.

I once had a professor who said the ones who really succeed in life are the ones who are too dumb to quit.
While persistence may be considered a more admirable way of describing it, I always liked his definition.

It's great but I was fortunate that it's been really warm this week. High 40's at night and low 60's during the day. It was probably low 40's where I camped.

If anyone's considering this hike, don't let me scare you...it's really not that tough. It was tough for me for different reasons but most of ya'll have hiked much more difficult trails.

There aren't many people, and even fewer women, who have the balls to hike a new trail and spend several days and nights in the woods alone. I think it's awesome!

Great report.
You did it all wrong real good.
Proud to know you.

The worst part about the mud was having to carry those wet, muddy pants for 2 days. They had to weigh at least a lb.
