We started last summer with an overnight hike that I think really got Bethany's blood going to hike her bucket list hike: The AT. We had such a blast and so when she suggested this 3 week hike, I was thrilled!!! Thankfully, we had almost a year to plan which I'm needing every day of! My job as a corporate pilot and personal assistant keep me very busy and out of town a lot. Thankfully, with 2 of us, and being that we are both big planners, we are pulling it all together!
Now, with only weeks to go, things are getting real! Did we make enough food? Ship enough supplies? Bring the right gear? Do we bring a shovel? What about bears? The questions are endless. I think, tho, that between the two of us, we will make it all work out and have the best time in the process.
Fun. That's what this has been. From the initial planning meetings to the food trials to the gear checks. From the tedious food dehydrating to the packaging meeting, it's all been fun. I cannot wait to get on the trail and and disconnect from the world a bit and have some serious fun with my friend.
