Georgia to Maine

Hello! My name is Nick and I'm attempting a northbound thru hike of the Appalachian Trail. I am beyond excited to attempt this challenge which has been a dream of mine for years.

The Appalachian Trail is an epic journey that spans nearly 2200-miles from Springer Mountain, Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine. The trail crosses 14 states and 2 national parks; it features some of the most spectacular natural scenery the East Coast has to offer. The journey will take between five and six months.

There will be many days filled with scorching heat, rain, mud, rocks, rattlesnakes, bears, mice, ticks, and a whole mess of other obstacles along the way. I am looking forward to preserving through the challenge while experiencing all of the beauty the Appalachian Trail offers.

While the majority of my time will be spent hiking and camping in the mountains, the occasional much-needed hot meal and comfy bed will help tremendously. Any funds raised will be used to help offset costs on resupplies, lodging costs, and provide a blanket for any emergencies.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for any support you may be able to provide.
