In reality,  this is the primary reason I got off the trail last year and 
went westward to the PCT.  I always imagined hiking on the AT from Georgia to 
Maine with me on the trail in quiet places.  Sometimes, to me, the AT was 
like rush hour traffic and the shelters were like college dorms.  If I ever 
do it again, it will be in a direction contrary to the hordes of others 
hiking.  Being a slow hiker, sometimes I had to move aside for 20 plus people 
to pass me during the day!

My favorite day on the trail was in a snow storm in the Smoky's when everyone 
got off, and I spent the day hiking by my lonesome.  It was wonderful!
