AT'16sec

I'm going to try the AT again.  Take a look at my ATsec'15 (section hike) page for what happened last year on the AT.  If all goes as planned, I'll be leaving for the trail around April 12, 2016.

I'll do what I can to provide daily blogs and images during this year's trip.  I suspect the images will be added only during town stays with WiFi or strong AT&T signal.  As I get the chance, I'll link those blogs on this page, but it likely won't be in real time.

I will add all photos in the Google Photos albums I've created by section.  When I'm able to upload the new photos, I'll try to mention it in the respective day's blog.  You can find those links below at the start of each trail section.  I'll only try to insert a few pictures from each day on each blog page.
