Ramdino does a End of Days Hike on the Foothills trail the last week of the year, and invites a lot of hikers to join him. Fresh Ground feeds the hikers on this hike also.
Turkey Run State Park is in my backyard! They have a lot of nice trails but not overly long ones. It is more of a day hike. They do have the Turkey Run Inn on property so you don’t have to sleep on the ground at least!! Shades State Park isn’t too far from there and they have nice trails too. Since you are in Michigan, you might consider the Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. Thanks for sharing your hikes with us!!
If you do your six or so miles of the AT in Maine, you can stay with us in Dexter, ME. And - we are an hour away from Arcadia National Park which is a real gem for trails and views. Try for May or June here if you do.
Ello ello, sounds like a great plan. I can see how you'd been drawn back I wish I was walking more tracks etc rather then 6+hours on tarseal highways lol. But I know it'd be like it, still no luck with my shoulder pain..still trying to find either a new pack or thicker better shoulder pads
@ontheloose2024 +My friends it's okay and yeah definitely makes you want to not push as hard as I could. I think I've found a New pack to try..it's only a 45L but it's got lots of great extras and better straps. I think my current one is not fit for my frame lol

@jamesbonner5989 the trail is all tore up now I hope the foothills trail is open sometime in 2025
It's like childbirth. You forget all the pain. And you remember all the joy and wonder. And then you want to do it again!

I’ve seen the tree formations in Northern California
We went to sequoia and those trees were amazing
I want to do the Foothills trail too.
Look into Red River George KY.
