[at-l] whats a cheaper thru hike....

[kcedergren at gmail.com (Kurt Cedergren)]

The 3 largest expenses I incured while section hiking the AT where
Food, Transportation, and "Town". The largest expense by far was Town!

If you're looking to hike the AT on the cheap, spend as little time as
possible in town and hike whatever trail is closest to you :)
