Anyone up for a 72 mile walk in the woods?


where are you going?

Long distance for the likes of me...and trust me, I'm having a hard enough time getting people to actually agree to this.....
Anyway, I want to do the NJ section of the AT.


Oh I have always wanted to do the AT. Wanted to start at the South end and go North till I got cold. :thumbsup: Do I need to tell you to get lots of pictures. :twisted:


That's already in my plans. ;)

I'm gonna try doing sections, Jersey seems do-able. I figure it will take a week to 10 days at the most.

Have you ever read the book, "A Walk in the Woods"
I highly recommend it.
In fact I bought it for my brother-in-law (does that count if I'm not really married?) for Christmas, and after he read it, I think I've got him talked into the trip. :thumbsup:


when you get to our end of it..let me know.. Perhaps meeting up to hike some of it with you could work.

Ok Johnny I finally did it.. I posted a message for this thread onto the other thread :oops:

Perhaps I should have been wearing those cheerleading outfits you were talking of :o

anyways goodmorning everyone.. welcome back Scott.

So Johhny since we are talking about hiking.. why don't you walk to work... if it is only 1 1/2 miles. It would be warmer than biking.. no special equipment would be needed...

well I need to run

have a great day

Morning Lisa,
I've been to your NJ before, Fort Dix in the Army, and Newark more times than I care to remember when driving the aformentioned big rig. I sure am glad to know that there is more to your home state then those two holes. :lol: I've seen the AT on Discovery or Travel Channel or something, that looks like fun. But I'm like Scott, I think you'd find me passed out within 5 or 10 miles. :lol: :lol: :lol:


Been there, done that. Did my time at Fort Dix also, and all these years later you could never look at me and tell :lol:

But I'm happy

Whoaaa....I'm not going that far.... :lol:
Only the NJ section, from the PA border to NY. I think that's enough to start with. We'll see how that goes, then maybe I'll set my sights higher!
