I'll have to search for my SYAO pictures, but here are pictures from the first TT hike I hosted, titled "Mud and Bugs in the ADKs":

Please note that the first 8 photos (not including the maps) were taken long before the trip. The maps were the proposed route. Unfortunately the trip was cut short due to rain when the river we camped by the first night rose 2' in an hour.

My first TT hike was with Towndawgie and Evergreen on the AT through Hot Springs. I was real nervous because I wasn't sure what I was getting into, but I figured everyone else was doing it - meeting strangers off the internet. So why not? I might jump off a bridge too...

this summer, when it warms up, we're all going skinny-dipping and nude-hiking........and then we're going to go jump off a bridge

I can't really remember what my first trip was. Might have been the first lamma hike.

Here's a link to the first TT trip I ever did with Birch and Sass.

I tried to go on a llama hike but all I got was a t-shirt! LOL...couldn't get time off from work. Now my parents have llamas - if hike through the pasture with them can I say I've been on a llama hike?

My first TT hike was with jerbear in 2001 right after 9/11...there might be a couple of pics on Phil's photo page from the trip. We met for the very first time in a parking lot in Baxter and spent the next 12 days backpacking. My last TT hike was September 2004.

LMFAO! I forgot about that photo, Phil. LOL!

(I think I may have been the one photoshopping people into that. hehehee)

OK, do two people count as a TT hike, LOL? Well, alrighty, here it is, with Freedom and dreaming of cabana boys! Posting date says 2002, but I think the actual hike was a year or two before that.

My first real "group" TT hike (you know, the kind with the orgy and all) was on the Buffalo River hike in Arkansas between Christmas and New Year's, I think in late 2002??

My first tt trip was before I was even a tter...had no clue who i was hiking with. Yam took me to the smokies with her "hiking friends" lol. MDShiker, Trekkingirl, Katibug, Nowslimmer, and some others i dont remember (sorry). I just remember the loud snoring done by katibug's hubby and the heat and humidity of July in the south.

My first trip as a tter was to Zaleski Ntl Forest, with Ewker, Trekkngirl, BigPoppa, Wolfeyes, Dhutch, Sass, Yam, Match, Evening Red and ltwtbkpckr. I think thats all. November 2004.

My first TT was last spring with a bunch of Trail Nazi's who thought it would be fun to carry full packs over Old Rag. I once swore I would never do that.

That was my only TT trip.










BTW - Thank God for HOI!
