Hey Pedxing,
I'm headed up to the Long Trail around the same time frame you've mentioned (late July / early August). I'm going to do end-to-end starting at the Canadian border. Let me know if you'd be interested in completing any of the trail together. It'd be kind of nice to have someone along for at least some of the trail. I've been unable to find anyone even remotely interested in going along for this one. Otherwise, I'm going to do this thing solo. Thanks and good luck!
