Update 4: Days 1-3

I am officially on the trail! Here is a recap of days one to three. I started off at Amicalola and my pack weighed in at a whopping 29 pounds, including 4 days of food and 2 liters of water. I met up with my new friend IBTAT, we did an extra long Approach Trail after an accidental detour, and then and up to mile 23.8 on the AT so far. After a year and a half of waiting and planning this trip, I am in all my glory so far! Stay tuned for more!

Liz Kidder's Bio

I seem to have a Type A mind and a Type B soul. Sobriety was boring at first until it eventually forced me into doing activities. I like jumping out of planes and long handstand walks on the beach. I have literally never backpacked before so if nothing else, you can expect to learn from my mistakes. AT '18 NOBO.
