Well, another great LASH on the AT...continuing our journey to Katadhin!! Follow along with Survivor and MacGyver as we continue our AT adventure!!
Join our journey thru our pics, risks, challenges...and yes....great times and beautiful views!
Right where we left off in 2020 in the Shenandoah National Park!
We start our trip by flying into Charlottesville in Central Virgina (from MI and TN) and taking a shuttle to the trail head. A shuttle from a great person, Ashley. Her and her husband Scott run a great shuttle service. Thanks Ashely and Scott!
So, how does any hike start?.....that first step.......and we will take many steps thru 4 states this year!
Most all backpackers, especially long distance backpackers, are asked (and even ask themselves); "Why do you/I do it? Why do you/I LASH the AT? Well......... MacGyver and I will share our thoughts and opinions on that throughout this years Blog adventure!
Why are we long distance hiking the AT?
"Life at a very basic and clear level that tunes out all the “noise and craziness” of what is going on in the world. “You walk, you sh*t/p**, you eat, you sleep, you repeat…....AND you enjoy the pure adventure of the hike".

Hi Possum! MacGyver and I finished up on Sept.7th with 351 miles in this year. False alarm on MacGyver taking ill. He was dehydrated but recovered in about 2 days. Was great to meet you this year!
