Hi, I'm thinking out loud here but are there that many through-hikers
heading south at the beginning of March in North Carolina?
A good place to be would be Monson, Maine on or around May 25 this year.
Then you would be able to interview the first SOBO folks out of Baxter and
the One Hundred Mile Wilderness. Amber.

I am a licensed psychologist in the state of Missouri, and an avid AT
enthusiast. I am conducting a study entitled "People of the Trail" to learn
more about the thru-hiking experience. I will begin interviewing thru-hikers
between NOC in North Carolina and Neels Gap in Georgia on March 1st. If you
are planning a thru-hike this season and will be hiking south through this
area in early March, please consider participating in this study. With your
help, I hope to gain a better understanding in regards to the process of
personal change during the thru-hike experience, and publish the results in
a book and/or journal article. Please feel free to contact me with any
questions or comments by e-mail <benlanpher@hotmail.com> or phone
(573)722-5797.
Hope to see you on the AT!!!
Sincerely,
Ben Lanpher, PhD
