I got the maps and book so now it is time to figure out a "schedule" just a proposed plan not in concrete. If we find some nice spots on the trail and we want to change this is very flexible.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Food planning?

Gear sharing?

Ok Katahdin might not be doable on this trip which is ok with me. I would rather spend a few days playing on the mtn than rushing up and down in one day.
Here is a sample plan;
Sat. Monson to Wilson Valley LT 13.9
Sun. to Chairback LT 15.6
Mon. to Carl A Newhall LT 9.9 plus side loop to Gulf Hagas 5.5 if you want, it can be shortened
Tues. to East Branch LT 10.8 This is pretty much the end of the hilly part after climbing over White Cap mtn 3654'
Wens. to Antlers Campsite 16
Thur. to Wadleigh Stream LT 13.6 Lunch at Whitehouse Landing and some resupply possible.
Fri. to Rainbow Spring Campsite 11.9
Sat. to Abol Bridge 11.2 and finished

The AMC evidently has some lodge or somethig near Gulf Hagas but it is a ways off the trail.
