Paul Shearman

Hello! I'm Paul Shearman. I will be attempting the Appalachian Trail in 2022 as both a Flip-Flopper and a Hammock camper. Most hikers start in Georgia and go north, and most carry tents. Because of this, I have found very little information on either Hammock camping or doing a Flip, so I hope to add my experiences along the way.
