Bethany Varner completed her hike on July 1 this year. She had
zero overnight backpacking experience, yet she adapted so well to
the challenge that she was even able to squeeze in a cruise with
her boyfriend while on the trail. On the way, she rediscovered her
faith in humanity, sharing her journey on YouTube
with an ever-growing following. She also blogged regularly, at
The Trek.
You can see some of her
photos from the trail on her Instagram account, and
if you happen to tweet from time to time, why not follow her on
Twitter?
Without any updates from
Attie, John Boyet has stepped into the breach by providing us with
some excellent gear advice while I'm away on the John Muir Trail.
If you have any questions for John, just email him at john@trailwalkergear.com.
If you'd like to follow part of my hike, I'll be posting on
Facebook
at When I'm 64. Also, if you'd like to pledge a few bucks to the
child abuse prevention agency which I'm supporting on this trip,
just email Bridget Harry at the agency at bharry@familypartnership.org.
Thanks so much for any help that you can give.
