I’m beginning to hobble, my right shin is sore and swollen, I’m developing callouses on my feet…​ I’m hiking the Appalachian Trail again! Last summer I hiked from Harpers Ferry, WV, to Mt. Katahdin in Maine. I am now finishing the trail by heading south from Harpers Ferry to Springer Mountain in Georgia. I’ve posted my first trail report from Waynesboro, VA, about 160 miles in.

You can read about my hike last year, and follow along this year, at Diode’s Appalachian Trail Hikes (2011/2012). If you’d like to be notified when I post updates, subscribe to the atom feed or subscribe via email.

I’ll still hopefully get a few essays up here while I’m on the trail.
