Good day,  I will be hiking the Appalachian Trail again in 2019 but going Southbound this time from Katahdin to Springer.  And might turn around and hike back.....  I am hiking for Mental Awareness as I suffer from Frontal Temporal Dementia and PTSD because of my 35 year service with our military.  so if you wish to hike this trail with me full or partial or a s cation, come join a very  experienced long distance hiker.  I can guide you on the trail and on gear too.  My social media info are under The Hiking Sailor.
