My name is Asah, this will be my blog for my 2015 Thru-hike. Right now I'm planning to start my Thru-hike on March 4th at Springer Mountain. I was able to graduate highschool early, and I have always liked hiking, so doing the AT is a logical next step. I hiked the Long Trail with my dad the summer of 8th grade and had an amazing time. The summer of my 10th grade year I went on a National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) course in the North Cascades where we were backpacking out in the wilderness for 30 days. I love hiking because it's so much simpler then everyday life in the frontcountry. I'll post a gear list eventually and I'll try to keep posts like this going weekly, maybe more while I'm on the trail.
