I really want to get back on the trail this year, but the distance traveled will likely be determined by the bank account statements toward the end of summer/early fall. I've hiked the LT in Vermont, and the AT in Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and part of NY. I considered most of those states fairly easy for covering decent miles everyday, and was wondering if any of the AT/LT vets could give me a rough idea of what to expect from Damascus to Springer Mountain in comparison to the northern mud mazes. I noticed there were some awesome peaks along the way.
If possible, I'll do a quick hike south from Damascus, then jump on the Benton Mackaye Trail going north until it crisscrosses the AT. From there I'd hike the AT back home. If I had the time and money, I'd do the entire BMT...but that's probably not gonna happen.
