    Fall MAHHA Pre-Hike

    I am starting this thread as a place to post your pre-hike plans for the Fall MAHHA. I know there were several of us who met up at various locations along the trail for the spring event, and I would like to encourage the same for the fall.

    I myself want to start in Harpers Ferry on Saturday October 4th. My in-laws live 1.4 miles from PenMar park, and I will be making a stop there on Tuesday to clean up, wash gear, and resupply. That leaves me a second start day being Wednesday morning at PenMar to make it to PGSF Friday afternoon. I am not a seasoned hiker (only about 100 trail miles), and think this will be a pace that is not too demanding. Currently I am solo, but would enjoy any company that would like to join.

    For anyone else hiking in from various locations, feel free to post here if your looking to gain additional company.

    I am planning to start a hike on Tuesday, October 7th from PenMar. I just learned of some planned training I may be required to take during that week, but I'm hoping I can get out of it. Jolly Green was hoping to be able to join me. More details to follow.

    Perrito, I read in the planning thread that you were starting at PenMar. I will have to pick up my pace, and see if I can join you guys What time are you guys leaving PenMar?

    I doubt I will be able to make it to PenMar Tuesday anytime before noon. I may just catch you guys along the trail, and join you whenever that time is.

    My current plans are
    Tuesday from PenMar (~1:00 pm) to Deer Lick, Antietam or Tumbling Run.
    Wednesday to Rocky Mtn
    Thursday to Birch Run
    Friday to PGFSP

    But this may all change.

    Well depending on how I do through MD, I may be able to join you guys. If I can get to my in-laws late Monday/early Tuesday, I may be able to join you and leave from PenMar. I will have to see how it all plays out.

    Unfortunately I'll need to be at work on the 9th/10th, so no pre-hike for me :-(.

    Ok, time to bump this thread as MAHHA is fast approaching. I have modified my original itinerary. I will be leaving Harpers Ferry with a fellow forums member John C. Friday morning and reaching Pen Mar Monday night. We will be staying at a hotel and planning to meet Perrito Tuesday afternoon. I hope everything works out for all interested parties. Anyone that wants to join in, please speak up.

    I came down with back spasms this week and missed 3 days of work. I mentioned this trip to my chiropractor and he's not to keen on the idea. I haven't given up hope yet but things are tentative for me. I am feeling better every day so I'm hopeful.

    Take care of yoursel first. Don't push the recovery. We will have wifi Monday night, so just send me a PM one way or the other please. I too suffer with back issues, and know they take time.
