Hi. I am brand new to the list, have never hiked the AT, but camp a lot
and hike a lot. I would like to start hiking on the AT in sections this
summer, mostly in MD and VA. A few questions: 1) anything I should
carry I might not think of? 2) how many miles can I expect to make in
6-8 hours, in good shape, etc.? 3)is it really a no-no to hike alone? I
would prefer it ( i am a girl) 4)what kind of small flashlight would
last the longest, for reading at night? 5)any other good advice? I am
kind of intimidated by the level of expertise I hear on this list--can a
novice, normal kind of day hiker do this? Thanks.
