Preparation. We are getting ready to do a section hike on the Sheltowee Trace in Kentucky. Actually it starts at Pickett State Park in TN and ends north of Morehead KY for a total of 280 miles. We are only doing the southern half of the trail, 140 miles or so, ending at McKee, KY. Using every last minute of vacation time I have left we have arranged to spend 12 days on the trail. That means we have to average 12 miles per day. Hopefully not too ambitious for this trail. We have not been hiking for awhile.
We are starting this hike with six days of food. Today I mailed another six days worth ahead to the Holly Bay Marina where we will pick it up on our way through. We have never mailed food to ourselves before, so I hope this works.
Only 171 days until we start the AT!
