I'll be gone for the next 4-6 months hiking the Appalachian Trail, going south from Maine to Georgia. This year the trail is 2189.1 miles(3523km). I figured I have one last chance to do something big before I go full time into the workforce, and this is it. No way I'd get 4-6 months off of any real job for at least a decade. I'm going to take the alone time to read some math textbooks and develop a few of my board game proof of concepts into something a bit more robust. And of course enjoy the nature. I leave for Maine Sunday and start hiking Monday. I'm super duper pumped.
All I know of that is from the movie Wild (2014) and it seems like quite the undertaking... Hope you are better prepared. Good luck!
I think she walked the west coast trail. I forget what it's called but I haven't seen the movie. The AT is super wet and that looks like desert.
