Previous I’m off. Pictured with my nephew Joe Willoh, we began by hiking up springer mountain to the trail head. All told about 11 miles mostly up hill. Tonight we are camping next to an AT shelter (pictured below). These shelters can usually be found every 10 miles or so in most of the trail. Very handy during storms.

Next We set out April 2nd needing to hike 15 miles to make the Gooch shelter. We made it 14 miles and just wildcat camped with our new friend Ian (pictured). The 14 miles were brutal up and down ascents and descents culminating in mount sassafras. Sassafras was a one mile almost vertical climb that just about killed us. I’m eating ibus like candy and everything still hurts!

Trek with Pat

It is said that the Appalachian Trail draws the young, the retired, and bunches of middle aged white guys in mid-life crisis. I will let my readers judge my status and motivations. Hopefully this blog will not only help my friends and family keep track of my whereabouts, but will also be an enjoyable glimpse into trail life. Maybe I'll throw in an occasional humorous rant about the criminal justice system. For now, join this recovering lawyer on his hike of discovery.
