Ok. Some have you have asked so I am posting this as I usually do. These are going to be my definite maildrop locations for this summer, as long as everything goes according to plan. If you have any interest, here are the locations you can send me something to help me along the way. I always will appreciate anything sent however please remember that my life will be carried on my back. If you were to choose to send me anything I ask that it be one of 3 things:
1) Handwritten letters. In today’s phone, computer, and internet age it means a lot to get a personal well wish from friend or family.
2) Homemade baked goods. We thruhikers live for months on the same dehydrated foods, ramen, mac and cheese, etc... and it gets old fast. It is nice to get something homemade to change things up eating on the next stretch.
3). Humor and/or real life sentimental items (that don’t weigh that much). If it is unique but light, or sentimental it will make the rest of the trip with me as a reminder of my friends and family back home.
My last request is that if you do decide to send me something, please find a way to contact me ahead of time before I reach that town so I know to look or ask for it. Text me, send me a facebook message, or send me an e-mail at ATThruhiker2005@hotmail.com The general delivery system with the USPS is pretty solid for us hikers, but if I don’t know something is coming or waiting for me, I may not get it if I don’t know it’s coming.
That’s about it for now. Here are the maildrops:
