Description


I know this is sort of last minute, but It's come down to go time and the trip is in danger of cancellation. Here's the deal: I'm in need of two hikers, or one dedicated driver. I'm attempting the Konbstone trail in Southern Indiana in two days. Thats two wicked 25 mile days. If anyone thinks they seriously have it in them, or would be interested in running shuttle, and doing their own thing during the day, please post up and shoot me an e-mail to boot. I'm prepaired to do it solo if need be but would prefer not to. If you think you could just drive, then I would need you to at least stay with-in an hour's drive of the various TH's. If we can come up with 3 hikers then there is no need for a driver.

The plan: We start before dawn on Thursday morning, and hike South to Leota TH. We will need a driver, or a car staged there with our camping gear. We will be traveling fast and light with only daypacks.

Day two: We push on to Deam Lake, and all the goodies we can haul down!

This trip is not for newbies, or those who do not feel capable of hiking two 25 days back to back. It's no BS. The KT is a tough trail, but it can be done. The only question is... do you have it in you? Come on, the Captain needs a crew!
